This pie crust recipe is simple to prepare and yields a flaky, delicious crust perfect for any pie.
Combine the flour, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl.
Use a whisk to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Keep the butter as cold as possible to ensure a flaky crust.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, vinegar, and water.
Use ice-cold water to keep the dough cool.
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until the dough just comes together.
Avoid overmixing to prevent a tough crust.
Divide the dough into two balls, wrap each in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Chilling the dough helps relax the gluten and makes it easier to roll out.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness and use as needed for your pie recipe.
Rotate the dough frequently while rolling to maintain an even thickness.
