Pie Crust

3 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/4 c. Crisco
1 egg
1 T. vinegar
1/3 c. water

Mix flour and salt and cut in Crisco. Beat egg and mix with vinegar and water. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture and blend until all flour is absorbed. Roll on floured board. makes two 2-crust pies or 4 singles.

If I am making a meat pot pie, sometimes I substitue some butter or butter flavored crisco for some of the shortening.

This is always tender and flaky and doesn't get tough when you re-roll it.

Here is one that's super simple:

No-Roll Pie Crust

1 1/2 c. flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. sugar
2 T. milk
1/2 c. salad oil

Combine dry ingredients in bottom of a 9-inch pie plate. Mix together oil and milk and add to dry ingredients. Blend together and pat out over bottom and sides of pan with hands. Bake as for a shell (400 degrees for 10-12 minutes) or add filling and bake.

Good Luck with your pie making!
