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.

dude, you talk way too much, just get on with the recipe
seriously annoying
Hi John, can I make this gluten free?
John – love the powdered nose and love the pie crust 😅
I love your recipes!!! …but I can't have gluten. Any chance any of these translate over to using gluten-free flour??? Would love you long time if you sprinkled in a few videos that were gluten-free alternatives to some of your classic recipes!
20 minute pie video? Nope. 20 minute pie crust video? Yes please! 😊
can I still bake the pie without blind baking the pie crust? also what kind of butter did you used? every time I make the pie crust it comes out too buttery, soft and falls apart, pls tell me what am I doing wrong.
Hi John!
Are you the bread winner in the family?
Yes, pun intended! LOL
If using vodka in this recipe, should the temperature of the vodka be very cold?
Or room temperature?
Really useful recipe .I am using this to make a Greek cheese pie .
