  • 11-1/4 oz. (2-1/2 cups) unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. table salt
  • 8 oz. (1 cup) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
  • 5 to 6 Tbs. cold water

Preparation

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Mix for a few seconds to blend. Add the cold butter and cut it in on low speed until the pieces are no bigger than peas. The texture will be floury with flecks of butter; it won’t be homogenous. Add 5 Tbs. of the water and mix for a few seconds on low, just long enough to let the dough pull together; if needed, add another 1 tablespoon water. Cut the dough in half, pat each into a ball, and flatten each into a thick disk. Roll out the dough right away, as instructed in the specific recipe.

    very easy to roll dough, used processer to make. next time I won't use egg wash, I think it made it brown to easy. Otherwise it is a great pie dough, should made many times. Also it head up well with a liquid filling.pie girl
