Serves 4 people

Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup olive oil or canola oil
  • 1/4 cup ice water (I use refrigerated water)

Directions

  1. Mix flour and salt with fork.

  2. Beat oil and water with whisk or fork to thicken.

  3. Pour into flour and mix with fork.

  4. Press into 9" pie crust.

  5. Fill with quiche mixture and bake at 400F until done.

  6. You can double the recipe, divide dough in half, and roll out into a pair of rounds for two-crust pies. This recipe is not suitable for baked pie crust shells. It makes a nice, flaky crust that’s suitable for everyday use.
