I have tried several pie crust recipes, but they just did not turn out right. So I changed the quantities and added and took away some ingredients and made a delicious pie crust. This recipe has never failed me.
INGREDIENTS (for 1 servings):
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1/4 cup lard
- 1/3 cup water
PREPARATION:
Mix the flour and the salt in a large bowl. Add the butter or margarine and lard; mix with hands until crumb like texture is achieved. Mix in the water. Pat into a ball, and wrap in wax paper. Refrigerate for at least two hours.
