No one commented on the crust when I made this recently. I did change things a little. I used salted butter instead of shorting, added 1tsp of sugar for sweetness and dash of cinnamon. However, it was fairly unremarkable. It was better than store bought crusts but not a highlight for us.

This pie crust did taste good, however I think it takes some tweaking to get the dough right. I did chill it and I still had problems with it sticking and or breaking. Thanks for the recipe though my company enjoyed the flavor.

This is the first pie crust I've made that actually came out, tasted great, rolled out easy and finally worked!

HELP! This recipe sounds great. I want to use it for a pecan pie and the recipe for that says to use an unbaked pie crust. Can I use this recipe and just not bake it first as directed? Can I use it unbaked? I don't want to mess it up. Thanks!

Good, but I'll save five stars for another attempt. It is just a little bit flavorless - I used regular shortening this time and will try with butter or butter flavored shortening next time. I rolled mine out, cut circles and placed them on the outside/upside down side of muffin tins to make shallow tart shells - I was able to make 24 shells plus have the pie scraps for cinnamon/sugar treats! (Note to those of you who say you used butter flavored shortening and it was too wet - that shortening has a higher moisture content than no-flavor, so you need to use less water.)

I was given this recipe by a young woman at church that made an apple pie there. She used butter instead of shortening and it was INCREDIBLE. Best crust I have ever tasted!!!

Fantastic! I will never buy another pre-made crust. This is so flaky it melts in your mouth. Thank you from a happy pie baker!

OK, I just must admit this is a better pie crust recipe than the one I have been using for 40 years. It is also very easy to handle. Made an ample amount for 3 single crusts.

Very easy to make and I liked the fact that you did not have to refrigerate it. Followed directions exactly and was not sticky at all. Thanks Felicia

This pie crust recipe did not work out for me as I hoped. It was very soft. I used plenty of flour on the counter & on my roller, but it kept sticking to my rolling pin & the counter when I was ready to lift it off. The dough cracked along the edges when I rolled it out, and fell apart when I went to lift it / scrape it off the counter. It tasted ok though & did bake to a nice golden brown. Sorry, I will look for another recipe for that perfect pie crust.

I have always had problems in the past with my pie crusts being too tough so consequently I have bought many Pillsbury pie crusts. There is no need for that anymore. My crust turned out flaky and light. I even had a little extra to roll out and sprinkle sugar and cinnamon on it and bake as usual. My children loved this. I made the crust with the Blueberry pie recipe from Beth from this site. Very good.

I found the dough was dry and needed 2 tbsps.extra cold water. I chilled the dough for an hour and it rolled easily. However, the crust was a little tough. It is a good recipe, however I am still looking for the perfect recipe.

This is the first time that I have ever made a pie crust and it turned out like I have been making pies for years and am an expert at it. The only thing I did differently was to chill it for 20 minutes before I rolled it out. Other then that I followed the recipe to the tee. Thank you, my husband was so excited that I was actually able to make him a pie that tasted as good as his mothers.

This pie crust is the most difficult that I have ever worked with. The dough needs to be chilled, and lots more water is needed. In my opinion, the crust is too thin for two pie crust...try just one. I will never try this recipe again!

This is the best pie crust ever! I've been experimenting with several pie crust recipes lately, and this is absolutely the best. SUPER flaky, very tasty. The egg adds a richness that is fantastic.
