Easy Pie Crust
4 c all-purpose flour
1 3/4 c shortening (also known as lard, Crisco, etc.)
3 T sugar
2 tsp salt
1 egg
1/2 c + 1 tsp cold water
Directions
In a cup or small bowl, beat egg into cold water. Chill. In a large bowl, cut together dry ingredients & shortening until crumbly. Stir in egg-water & blend thoroughly. Turn out onto LIGHTLY floured surface. Knead for desired consistency. Roll out dough to pan size.
*This quick & easy-to-make recipe will make a whole pie (bottom & top crust), unless you are using an extremely large baking dish. Good for deep dish pies, also.
