I’m thinking that I didn’t mix the butter in enough and I accidentally made a sort of almost puff pastry.

    Because you made banging pie crust? Goals, friend.

    That is some fine looking pie crust. Congrats

    That is known as a “rough puff” and it’s a very good example, well done

    There is nothing wrong with your FLAKY pie crust! Bet your pies disappear quickly!! 👏🏾👏🏾

    This is that moment in the YA fantasy book where the protagonist is saying But I don’t WANT these magical powers!

    That’s rough puff dough, which is a simplified version of croissant dough.

    Congratulations on finding out you’re accidentally really good at rough puff pastry!

    Put a NSFW tag on this because it’s PORN. Really though, way to accidentally discover you have a magic talent

    idk give me the pie since you dont appreciate flaky layers

  10. This feels like a humble brag 😂 Many people put a ton of effort in achieving this without success.

    Unintentional humble brag 😂. That’s awesome!

    You get a Hollywood Handshake™️ for that crust!

    this the prettiest thing i have ever saw.

  14. When making pie crust you don’t fully incorporate the fat, so when you roll it out the little nuggets of fat become plates of fat that melt out and leave u with distinct layers. This looks like really good pie crust, good job!

    My mouth yearns for the texture I imagine this is. Instead of questioning why it happened, I’d be trying to figure out how to make it happen on purpose

    I didn’t know one could *accidentally* laminate dough, but here we are.

    I’d do some shady things to get my crust like that- share your secrets!

    OP’s humblebrag 11/10 pie crust 💜 well done, OP!

    You just made the perfect crust…just a tip though, use an egg wash for the second baking and it won’t come out slightly over baked.

  20. the__moops

    Sorry about your perfectly laminated pie crust. Better ship it to me to dispose of properly.

    You’ve done a bang up job is what has happened. Paul would be proud.

    Lamination. The lipids/fats in the butter you layer heats up quickly vaporising water content to create steam which then expands the layers you have folded in preparing the dough.

    Is that a tiny pie in the background? 😂

    Not doing this on purpose and having it turn out so beautifully is a flex.

  25. Due_Advance7967

    You laminated the ever living fuck out that dough, like a pro using a roller for croissants.
