This recipe will show you why old-fashioned cooks choose lard for their pastry. The pastry turns out super flaky and manageable to roll out. Along with the lard, there 's brown sugar, egg yolk, vinegar and baking powder. The resulting dough bakes up into a rich crust that will handle any filling beautifully.

This is a no roll, press in the pan crust, made with oil instead of shortening. It is very good and very easy. A good choice for when a top crust isn't necessary. Vegetable oil may be used instead of peanut oil.

My mother-in-law gave me this recipe. She always used lard and I found it easier to work with than vegetable shortening. 

Hot Water Pie Crust II

Submitted by: Ruth
This recipe yields a tender, flaky pie crust every time. Flour, shortening, hot water, cornstarch, vinegar, and milk will help you do the trick. The dry ingredients are stirred into the liquid ingredients and the dough is rolled between sheets of waxed paper. This recipe yields two double crusts.

If you 've never made pastry dough in the food processor, you 're in for a treat. This recipe is foolproof and easy. Make sure all the ingredients are chilled, plop them into the processor, and that 's it. You 'll get flaky, manageable dough.
