Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups flour
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon of cinnamon
- 1 cup of unsalted vegan butter, frozen and grated
- 6 tablespoons ice cold water
Instructions
- In a large bowl add the flour, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well and set aside.
- Grate the vegan butter into the flour. Using a fork mix everything together until the vegan butter and four are fully combined and the vegan butter has crumbled even more.
- Add the water and mix with a spoon. Once the dough is fully combined, knead for 10 seconds. The dough should not be sticky.
- Shape the dough into a ball and wrap it up tightly in a plastic bag. Place in the fridge for 3 hours.
- Remove the dough from the fridge and remove the plastic bag. Sprinkle some flour on the table and let it sit for 10 minutes.
- Place a large piece of parchment paper big enough to fit the fully stretched and thin dough. Sprinkle some flour, place the dough ball on it and start to slowly roll out the dough. Roll out into a 10 to 12 inch circle – depending how big is your pie baking dish.
- Once the dough is stretched to the appropriate size. Carefully lift the parchment paper with the dough and slowly flip it on top of your baking dish. Gently start to separate the dough from the paper if it's slightly stuck.
- Adjust the raw pie crust to fit the bottom and walls of your pie baking dish. Pinch or use a fork slightly mark the edges to create a design.
