This didn't turn out well for me. Too thin and not flaky at all. Since everyone rated it so high I'll try it again.

Okay, I finally made a good one! I took the advice and "treated the pie crust lightly", which basically means I just stirred the ingredients together just until it stuck, rolled it out, and didn't fool with it. And what do ya know, it turned out great.

I have never made pie crust before. I have to say this one was super easy to make, and it tasted great!

On the advice of another review, I used half shortening, half butter. I followed the doubling instructions and substituted 1 cup of wheat flour for one of the cups of all purpose flour. This was an amazing substitution. I love this recipe. If I am doing a sweet pie, I use half the salt and 1/2 a tablespoon of sugar. If I am doing a chicken pot pie, I use the full amont of salt, and no sugar.

This crust turned out PERFECT and I'd never made pie crust before. My mom and grandma told me how great and crispy and flaky it was. I did the doubled recipe and you definitely don't need the entire amount of water, I just added a bit at a time until it was the right consistency. Thanks for a perfect crust!

I'm the worste pie crust maker and this is the first recipe that I have tried that I didn't make a mess of. Was easy to roll out without tearing and transferred to the dish beautifully. Thanks for sharing.

This was the first time I actually got a pie crust to come out perfect after many years of failed attempts at crusts. And that was with the help of my 4 year old daughter! No more trying new recipes for me. Thanks!

I used 1/2 butter, 1/2 shortening, and a few teaspoons of sugar and let me tell you, this is MUCH better than the last recipe I used. I followed other suggestions to add ice water a tablespoon at a time and it came together really nice, and rolled well after refrigeration. It makes *just* enough dough for one double crust pie. To make it work with two single crust pies I had to roll it really thin. I will definitely make this again, just maybe quadruple it. ;)

Got great flavor & consistency adding a bit of powdered sugar and substituting half the shortening with butter, which was added as frozen by grating to minimize melting while working the crust.

Easy pie crust to make. I made this with a blueberry pie. The crust turned out nice and flaky. The flavor of the crust was just great. I will be using this crust from now on. I am going to trim off more of the edging it was a little thick for my liking. It was wonderful.Thank you for sharing!

This was the easiest pie crust dough I've ever made and worked with. I scaled it down to 8 servings because I wasn't using it to make a pie. I made what my mom always called "little things". I rolled out the dough and spread margarine all over it and sprinkled sugar, then cinnamon all over it. I then rolled it up and cut into little pinwheels. Baked in the oven at 325 degrees for 8-10 minutes. They were great! This crust made them so perfect! Next time I make a pie this is the crust I'm using for sure!

I give this recipe a 5 because it is simple, easy to make, versatile, and I would do not have to modify this recipe, unless I want to add my own flair.

It was good and really easy. It wasn't as flaky as I expected, and the water it calls for is too much; the dough was a bit sticky. I will probably try another recipe, just cause there are lots out there, but this is a good one.
