I've been making ice water pie crust for many years and was pretty skeptical of using hot water. Wow, was I wrong! This was so easy and came out of the oven tender and flaky. I added a tablespoon of sugar with the dry ingredients because I was making a fruit pie. I didn't chill the dough before I rolled it out. You must use waxed paper below and above because the dough tends to stick. Use the bottom wax paper to 'flip' the dough into your pie pan and then peel off the paper. Voila!

I have never been able to make a nice pie crust, but I did with this recipe. It seems strange when you are making it (it breaks all the rules), but it works.

I've always had trouble when it comes to making pie crust, but not with this one. I follow the recipe just as it appears and it turns out wonderful and flakey everytime. Making pies is not a big deal for me anymore.

This crust tasted really good. It's a nice flaky crust that doesn't turn out to tuff. I tried to handle it very gently, so as not to overwork it. Also, I used just a little bit less salt. If you like a sweeter crust you may want to add a little sugar. I didn't though because I like my crust to be more salty than sweet. I'll keep using this recipe from now on. Thanks.

This is the most flaky pie crust ever! I've been searching for this recipe because it's the same one my mother used to use, but she never wrote down. I just remembered the ingredients, but not proportions. The only difference is my mother used lard.

I was hesitant to try this recipe as it seemed so different but it turned out great! I have trouble rolling out dough but this wasn't bad at all and it turned out tender and flakey.
