submitted by speaklife1 on 02/01/14 1

The ingredients are 1 cup &2 Tbls. flour, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/3 cup canola oil and 2 Tblsps. ice water . This is our family's favorite pie crust recipe! It can be used to make both sweet and savory recipes and is an absolute cinch to prepare! Let us know if you make it!! To Make a 2 crust pie Although it's not quite double the recipe because the top crust is a little smaller,it's easier to double the recipe and roll the extra for a little nibble. Make double the recipe in one bowl and divide in half to roll out.After rolling and placing the bottom crust(make sure there is an overhang of about an inch around)you can take about 1/4 off the ball to save for the nibble and roll the rest to the same thickness as the bottom.Place over your filled pie and pinch edges together.You want the bottom crust to extend a little bit beyond the upper crust and pinch towards the pie which will bring the bottom crust over the top edges to seal the filling in.Make slits with a knife or poke with a fork so that when the filling boils,the steam can escape Bake as your recipe directs..Then you can roll out the extra,sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and bake nest to your pie(but for a shorter time..Sounds way more complicated than it is .
