This crust was very light and browned nicely. Instead of using regular shortening I used butter flavored Crisco and it gave the dough a light butter flavor. I brushed the top of the pie with one egg and milk and sprinkled sugar for a nice golden crust! I am making this again for evey holiday!

This is the only from scratch crust you'll ever need. It tastes great and is so easy to make. I made it and let it chill while making my pie filling. It's super for sweet potato and pecan pies! I found the perfect sweet potato pie and crust in 1 day, happy happy happy!

I bake pies often, and this is not one of the best pie crusts that I have used. I followed the recipe to the letter, and although it was easy to work with, and had an ok taste, it was very tough, not flaky at all on Aunt Opals lattice crust pie (now there's a great recipe!) Sorry, not a keeper for me. Fool-proof pie crust is much better and flakier. I'll keep that one.

This pie crust was perfect! I used it for a blueberry, a peach and an apple pies and they all came out with lovely light flakly crusts. I highly recommend it.Next time I will add a little lemon zest for the apple pie. I did not use less salt as my family likes the salty taste.

My first pie crust off this site, and it was a definite success. You can't go very wrong with this recipe. I used it with Sour Cream Apple Pie I, and I received rave reviews.

I used this pie crust in a Lemon Meringue Pie and it was perfect. I did cut back on the salt as others suggested. Since the recipe makes enough for two crusts, I used one and froze the rest.

This is a great flaky wonderful crust. I follow the directions exactly and turn out excellent. I will not buy a crust ever again and can't wait to make for all those Thanksgiving pies.

This was just what I was looking for. I love to bake and this was my first "from scratch" pie shell. I used it for a fresh blueberry pie and this was excellent. Wouldn't change a thing.

So easy that I now feel confident making pie crust!! I used lard - and changed the amount of sugar depending on the type of pie I made. This is definitely a keeper recipe! Try it with Aunt Carol's Apple Pie - guaranteed success!

Easy to make, easy to work with. It also keeps well in the frig or freezer, so i make it in quadruple batches. i don't like the crust part of pies or quiches, but i really liked the lightness and texture of this. And "scraps" can be rolled out, sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar, and baked on a greased cookie sheet till lightly browned- kids love them!

This crust is very easy to work with. I have made my own crust for years, and I will now use this recipe as my basic pie crust. I will try using less salt and more sugar for dessert crusts, and less salt and less or no sugar for quiche crusts.

I've never made a crust before and now I can make one better than a bakery! I followed the review suggestion to put the dough in saran wrap after cutting in the shortening. I kneeded it lightly then refrigerated it 10 min. After dividing the dough in half I had to refrigerate the second half to keep it cold for rolling the top crust. The crust came out flaky and delicious. I prefer the crust to the filling in a pie and this crust is good even all by itself. This is definitely a five star recipe and easy for even novice pie makers like me.

This was my 1st try at a pie crust from scratch. I will NEVER use a Store bought crust again. This was so easy and even remained flakey days later & when the Apple & Sour Cream Bluebery pies were re heated in the Micro. THIS IS A KEEPER!

This was my first try at a "Home Made Crust" I will DEFENETELY be using this again. Especially when the crust was still flakey a few days after Thanksgiving when reheated in the microwave. DO NOT BAKE FIRST. Just roll it out and poured in the pie filling. Baked it for 15 minutes at 450 then lowered it to 350.

I want something that's more a sweet and flavorful crust. But, for what this is, it's great. I didn't even put it in the fridge the whole time. I let it cool in the freezer while I prepared my apple pie. Turned out great and very easy. My first time baking a pie and it was a success!!!
