Yield Makes Four 5-Inch Pies

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Place flour, salt, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor; process to combine. Add butter, and process about 7 seconds, until mixture resembles coarse meal.
  • With machine running, slowly add between 1/2 cup and 3/4 cup ice water through the feed tube, until pastry just beings to hold together.
  • Turn dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap, and pat into a square. Divide dough in half, and wrap each half separately. Chill for at least 1 hour before using.
