Source of Recipe
Marla Baker
List of Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 cup of vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup of milk
Instructions
- Combine flour and salt in small mixing bowl.
- In a liquid measuring cup, add the milk to the oil, but do not mix.
- Pour liquid into flour mixture and stir until dough forms and cleans the side of the bow. (Do not stir too much or crust will be tough).
- Divide dough in half and roll out between two sheets or waxed paper to size 1-2 inches larger than the pie pan.
- It helps to dampen the countertop surface before placing the waxed paper.
- Remove top piece of waxed paper and lift the crust into the pie pan (I prefer 8 or 9") using the bottom piece of waxed paper.
- Remove waxed paper and trim the edge with a sharp knife.
- Repeat with remaining dough for top crust.
- Cut slits in crust before placing on top of pie filling.
- Seal edges by folding top crust under edge of bottom crust and crimp with a fork or your fingers.
