Steps:
- Cut shortening into flour with a pastry blender or with two butter knives until it resembles a coarse meal.
- Add cold water gradually and mix until the flour/shortening comes together to form a ball that holds its shape and is not sticky. If necessary, add more water or flour.
- Divide ball in two, and roll each separately into a circle large enough to fit your pie pan.
- For a double crust filled pie, place one shell into pie pan. Add pie filling and top with other crust. Bake as directed on pie filling recipe.
- For 2 single crust pies, place each shell into 2 pie pans, add filling and bake as directed on pie filling recipe.
- For 2 single crust pre-baked shells, place each shell into a pie pan and bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Cool before filling.
