Crust
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Add the flour and salt in a large bowl. Mix well to combine.
  3. Add the shortening and 1/4 cup of the cold water. Using a fork, mix well.
  4. Knead the dough until a ball that isn’t sticky forms. Dribble a bit of the
  5. leftover water as you go along until you get the right consistency.
  6. Roll the dough out onto a floured surface using a rolling pin. Make it a nice big circle.
  7. Gently place dough inside a 9-inch greased pie pan and trim the excess dough from the edges. Pinch the edge of the dough between your thumb and fingers to make a crimped edge.
