Easy Pie Crust Recipe with Butter
Even though I am a baker, I am not passionate about baking everything. I don’t love pie, so I really don’t enjoy making it. Up until recently, I have only ever made one pie in my life. And that was many years ago!
I did some research to find an Easy Pie Crust. One of the reasons I don’t like making pie is having to touch raw flour. I really don’t like the feeling of it! I found this recipe at Natasha’s Kitchen and noticed the crust is made in the food processor with only a few simple ingredients. Once I saw that, my mindset shifted and I got excited!
This is absolutely the BEST pie crust I have ever had! It was so easy to make, it came together in minutes, and really gave me a huge sense of accomplishment! Not to mention it is wonderfully buttery! I am considered a beginner pie maker, and as a beginner I highly recommend using this recipe!
What You’ll Need
2 1/2 cups Flour
1/2 tbsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Salt
1 cup Butter, Cold & Diced
7 tbsp Water, Cold
How to Easily Make Pie Crust
Place 2 1/2 cups flour, 1/2 tbsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt in a food processor and pulse to combine.
Add in 1 cup cold, diced butter until coarse crumbs form.
Add in 7 tbsp cold water and pulse until moist clumps form.
Transfer the dough to a sheet of parchment paper. Divide evenly and form into balls. Then flatten to form 2 discs. (Do not knead the dough.)
Wrap entirely in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour before using.
