Ingredients

This recipe can be done by hand or food processor. I will explain both in the recipe.

1.

Add in ice water. Make sure the dough stays chilled while you are making it.

2.

I like to pinch to test that it will stay together.

3.

Let the dough chill before working with it.

Roll it out a few inches bigger than your pan. Fold the edges under.

5.

Crimp your edges and it is ready! Either blind bake or fill.
