Gramma's Favorite Pie Dough image

Incredibly quick and easy pie dough. All these ingredients should be in your pantry. This is ideal for pumpkin pie or other custard pies. Roll it out a bit thicker and it will hold up to the pie. I finally converted the SO who kept insisting the store-bought were fine. Those things are thin and tasteless. Blech.

Time 5m

Yield 1 9 to 10-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled
3 -4 tablespoons ice water

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, or in a food processor, mix together flour and salt.
