Pie Crust

Pie Crust Recipe (makes one pie crust bottom)

1 cup white flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 stick of Butter (chilled)
11/2 teaspoon salt
optional 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
2-4 tablespoons ice water

In a large bowl add flour salt and sugar and mix.

Next cut thin slices of butter to mix. Then with fork or butter cutting implement press and cut butter until it is finely integrated. Take a little time for this part.

Now take ice water and add a tablespoon at a time and mix. Keep adding ice water a little at a time until the mix begins to stick together. Too much water and you won't be able to work with your hand. Better to stay on the dry side. Use hands to need the mix together. Stop as soon as it can be held together in on ball of dough.

Put in refrigerator until needed or roll out with rolling pin immediately. Put in pie pan mold it to form and you are ready to add filling.

Enjoy
