My Grandma Sally, rest her soul, made a wonderful pie crust. I was always crazy about both spending time with my Grandma, and learning her cooking tips. I loved her pie crust and it was unique because it had an egg in it-which most pie crusts do not. See the picture of the recipe card and how well it was used!
Of note: I have tried this recipe with King Arthur’s Gluten Free flour. It was still a bit too crumbly and hard to roll. I still need to perfect the gluten free version.
3 cups flour
1 cup shortening
1 egg
1 Tbsp white vinegar
5 Tbsp water
pinch of salt
Put all ingredients in a bowl and mix. Use enough additional flour to roll out into 2 pie crusts. Makes 2 crusts for a 9″ pie.
