Time 20m

Yield 1 Pie crust, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons white sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt (if using unsalted butter)
2/3 cup unsalted butter, cubed (or use salted butter and omit salt)
1 egg, beaten
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Sift together the flour, sugar, and salt (if using) into a bowl.
  • Toss butter into flour mixture to coat pieces. Using fingertips, rub butter into flour, working it until you have created a coarse meal with a few pea-size pieces.
  • In a small bowl, combine egg and vanilla. Whisk together, then add gradually to flour mixture, stirring with a fork. Mix with hands until dough forms a ball.
  • Knead the dough to make it smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  • Roll out dough and shape to pie pan or cut out rounds for tarts.
