Total Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

1 1/2 Cups Flour
1/2 tsp Salt
2 Tbl Sugar
1/2 Cup Cold Butter (1 Stick) - Cut into Cubes
1/2 Cup Ice Cold Water

Instructions

Pulse the Flour, Salt, Sugar and Butter in a food processor until pea-sized butter pieces. You can do this by hand as well using a pastry cutter.
Then add the water, pulsing (or mixing) until dough comes together (no dried flour on outside of food processor). This will be crumbly dough that easily forms a ball when compressed.
Form into a ball and roll out to size. Or flatten ball slightly & place in a freezer safe bag for longer term storage.
Place in pie dish, add desired filling and bake per chosen pie/quiche recipe instructions.
Enjoy your flaky and delicious crust!

Notes

To use a pre-frozen pie crust, simply take the crust out of the freezer the night before using and thaw in the refrigerator until needed for desired recipe.
