Instructions
- Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl. Cut in the shortening and the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. 3 cups pastry flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup shortening, 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter
- Mix the water and vinegar together in a cup. Add the mixture to the crumbs. Mix together just until the dough is combined and handles well. 1/2 cup ice cold water, 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- Sprinkle flour on the counter before rolling out the dough. Split the dough into two chunks.
- Roll out one piece of dough on a floured surface into a rectangle. The dough should be about the thickness of a regular pie dough.
- Spread a light coating of butter all over the pie crust. Then sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. butter, cinnamon, sugar
- Starting with the long end, roll up the dough jelly roll style, as if you were making cinnamon rolls. Roll the dough tightly.
- Once the dough is rolled, use a sharp knife or pastry cutter to cut the dough into slices about 1/4-1/2" thick.
- Press the cinnamon rolls flat side down into the bottom and up the sides of a 9" pie plate. Overlap and press the edges together to seal the crust.
- If you are making just a bottom crust, turn the edge under and use thumbs "flute" the edges of the dough.
- Fill the pie and bake according to your pie recipe.
- If you are making a double crusted pie, roll out the other half of the dough, spread it with butter, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar, rollup jelly roll style and slice into 1/4" thick slices just as with the other crust.
- Fill the bottom pie crust, then place the cinnamon roll slices overtop the fruit filling. Don't worry about sealing the crust, but simply place the slices overtop in a pretty arrangement. Bake the pie as your recipe suggests.
- This recipes makes enough for a double crusted pie.
