Lard and 7-up distinguish this eccentric pie crust recipe. But it all comes together perfectly: The dough rolls out easily and bakes up tender and flaky. This recipe yields four pie crusts.

There 's bread flour and baking powder in this simple flaky pastry. And yes, there 's boiling water. It whips up into a terrific pastry that holds up to hearty fillings for beef or chicken pot pies.

Very easy recipe from my Grandmother. Crust can be rolled out a second time if necessary and it won't get tough.
