My mother used this pie crust recipe, and it is the only one I've been able to do successfully. Great flavor and very flaky!

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
⅔ cup vegetable shortening
3 tablespoons cold butter

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour and salt together in a bowl. With a pastry cutter, cut the shortening and butter into the flour until the chunks are the size of small peas.
