Yield: 2 crusts

Ingredients

• 2-1/2 cups of flour

• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 cup of butter, very cold and cut into small pieces

2. Sprinkle the very cold pieces of butter over the top of the flour mixture.
3. If using a food processor, use about 10 one second pulses until the mixture resembles wet, coarse sand. If using a bowl, cut butter and flour mixture together with two knives or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles wet, coarse sand.
4. Add a few drops of water at a time and pulse food processor or mix dough with a spoon. Keep adding water until the dough just comes together to form a shaggy ball.
5. Divide dough into two balls and flatten slightly. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 60 minutes.
6. When you are ready to use the dough, remove from the refrigerator and allow it to stand for about 5-10 minutes.
7. Generously flour a silpat, pastry cloth, or your work surface and rolling pin. Roll dough into a round slightly larger than your pie dish.
