Oil Pie Crust

By , About.com Guide

I have never tried this recipe, so I can't say what it's like - but if you run out of shortening, give it a try! Use the waxed paper method of rolling for this pastry.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 cup plain oil (peanut, safflower, NOT olive)
  • 1/4 cup whole cold milk

Preparation:

Mix flour and salt together. Add the oil and milk all at once and stir lightly until a dough forms. Use in any recipe calling for a two-crust pie.
