How to make homemade pie crust

• 1 Tbs of salt
  
• 6 Tbs of butter
  
• 3 Tbs of water
• 1 Cup of Flour

Grab a bowl and lets begin

•   Combine flour and salt. 
• Cut in 6 tablespoons butter with fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• ( If you have a pastry blender it will be a lot quicker but if not proceed with the fork)
• Stir in enough cold water with fork just until flour is moistened.
• Shape into ball; flatten slightly.
• Roll out ball of dough on floured surface into a circle.
• Fold into quarters.
• Place dough into pie pan;
• Unfold, pressing firmly against bottom and sides.
• Trim crust from edge of pan.
• I always cook my pie crust for about 10 mins or until lightly brown before I add any filling. If you don’t that is fine as well. My style your liking

Yummy! Dig in and enjoy!
