Making the Crust

Course: Dessert, Bread, Others
Cuisine: American

Ingredients

Pâte Brisée (This is just a fancy way to say Pie Dough)
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup butter 2 sticks, chilled and cut into small cubes, unsalted
  • ¼ cup water plus extra tablespoons as needed, ice
  • **Quick Note on ingredients - always use unsalted butter in baking recipes. Salted butter will affect the salt content of your recipe. Also pay attention to the egg size in the recipe. I also prefer to use unbleached flour when baking.

Notes

  • I highly recommend using a food processor for ease but if you don’t have one, you can follow these steps in a bowl using a pastry cutter, a fork, or even your fingers!
