Hi everyone, its Natasha of Natashaskitchen.com and this is our go-to recipe for homemade pie crust. It’s a tender, flaky crust, with rich buttery flavor and it’s all natural, with only butter and no shortening. Homemade pie crust is quick

And easy to make. In the bowl of a food processor combine two and a half cups of flour, 1/2 a tablespoon of sugar and half a teaspoon of salt. Pulse those together to combine. Now you’ll need half a pound of unsalted cold butter, straight from the fridge.

Dice the butter into small pieces, then transfer it into the food processor. Pulse the mixture together until coarse crumbs form, with some pea-sized pieces, then stop mixing. It should be dry and powdery at this point. Now add exactly 6 tablespoons of ice water, then pulse just until moist clumps or small balls

Form. To test if you’ve added enough water, press some of the dough between your fingertips and it should stick together. If you over mix or add too much water the dough will be sticky and difficult to roll out. Transfer the dough

To a clean work surface and pull it together quickly with your hands. Do not knead the dough at this point, just pull it together. Now divide it in half and flatten to form two equal disks. Wrap each disc in a sheet of plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator. All

Right, you want to wrap these up in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour and then you can use them for any recipe that calls for pie dough. Hey girl, you ready for pie? Yeah? What kind of pie should I make? Ahh… pasta one.

Okay, maybe not any recipe! What other kind of pie do you like? Blueberry pie. Blueberry pie! That’s what we’ll do. I’ll make you a blueberry pie. Okay, let’s go put this in the refrigerator. You want to do it? Yep. Perfect. Thank you. Let’s go.

    This is the FIRST recipe where my dough didn’t fall apart and it stretched out so nice! If you’ve been looking for a good dough recipe, this is it!

  2. @carmencxc

    Love this recipe! It always tastes great, the only thing I can’t get the dough not to break when I knead it .. 🙁

  3. @zsavage1820

    Still relevant in 2023… This is one of my fav go to recipes… thank you Natasha,… best to you and yours from me and mine

    If I freeze one of the dough disks, when it is time to defrost it to use it, I am assuming to put it in the fridge up to a day ahead of when I would need it. Is this assumption correct?

    You saved me!!! Thanksgiving Eve 11:30 pm, & realized my pumpkin pie didn't have sugar in it. Ugh!! Had everything but the pie crust. This crust will be much more appealing anyway. So easy & fast & in the fridge to remake pies in the morning. Thank you!!!!! ❤

  25. @MistaMania48

    Can i store this dough in fridge or freezer long term? Im thinking maybe, making a bunch and leaving it for whenever the desire for pie comes up later on.

    If you want to make this crust and bake it empty, for example, to use for banana cream pie or any cild filling, how ling would you prebake this? What temperature, what degrees? Using weights or dry rice for dry baking? Thankyou

    I have baked for years bit have always avoided making pie crust because it never turns out. The only pie crust that worked for me is the one you make with oil and no need to roll, you just pat it in the pan. It is so flaky and delicious. I tried this recipe and was so disappointed as it was a disaster. I followed instructions completely. First if all, my food processor was too small to hold everything so I had to finish it with a pastry blender. It was a a bit dry and crumbled and fell apart. I added just half a tablespoon cold water and it didn't work. Parts were sticky, other parts crumbled and wouldn't stay together. I managed to make it into a ball and divide in half. It's in the refrigerator chilling now. I want it for banana cream pies tomorrow, but if it doesn't work, I'll have to go back to the oil recipe. 😢😢😢
