Easter Pie

Step 1: Prep the dough

  • Pie crust

    • flour
      345 g3 parts
    • butter
      , small pieces
      230 g2 parts
    • ice water
      75-115 g1 part
    • salt
      6 g
    • black pepper
      to taste

Combine the flour and butter pieces in a mixing bowl. Rub the butter in between your fingers until there are a bunch of coarse little chunks.

Add 75 grams of the ice water, along with the salt and black pepper. Gently mix the dough until it just comes together. If the dough is worked too hard, it will become tough.

  • If it is still very dry and crumbly, slowly add more of the ice water.

Shape the dough into a disk and wrap it in plastic wrap. Set in the refrigerated for at least 30 minutes or up to several hours when you are ready to roll out the crust.
