italian sweet pie dough recipe- crostata

In the kitchen with my mama 💞👩🏼‍🍳👩🏻‍🍳 she taught me how to make her Italian sweet pie crust — the one she’s been making since forever.

Just 2.5 cups of flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/2 cup softened unsalted butter, and 2 room-temperature eggs… simple ingredients turned into something special.

She starts with the classic “well” method: a little mountain of flour with a hollow center. The sugar gets poured into the bowl of eggs, whisked together until smooth, and then that golden mixture is poured right into the well.

Bit by bit, she pulls the flour into it, working slowly until it thickens. Then comes the softened butter, mashed in with the back of a fork like her mother taught her.

Once the dough comes together, she finishes it by hand until it forms a soft, smooth ball. No chill time needed — just roll it out and it’s ready for the pie dish. 🇮🇹✨

There’s something truly comforting about recipes passed down through generations… they always taste like home. ♥️ 🥧
