A homemade pie crust is one of the best ways to elevate a pie. While a store-bought crust is convenient, my all-butter recipe tastes so much better than store-bought because it doesn’t contain any other oils or preservatives. If you find the thought of making pie dough from scratch intimidating, I’m here to help! I retested and updated my recipe to share my essential tips for ensuring your crust is flaky and tender every time (the secret: cold temperatures!). My recipe method is virtually foolproof thanks to a food processor. How? By coating part of the flour with fatty butter before adding any liquid. I explain it all below, along with how you can roll, shape, and blind bake your perfect pie dough into the most delicious pie.

Awesome thanks!😊
What a very detailed tutorial! I’ve had such bad luck with premade pie crust dough breaking apart when trying to roll it out! I’m making my own pie dough from now on! 😊
I make a pie crust with flour and lard and butter. I tend to make a savory crust over a desert crust. I love a good chicken or turkey pot pie but I love a really fresh fried apple pie.
