Step 1

In a medium sized bowl, add your flour, salt, and butter.

Step 2

Using a pastry cutter, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Next, start folding in 2 tablespoons of water at a time with a fork.

Step 4

The mixture will start coming together after about 7-8 tablespoons of water. At this point, you can use your hands to press it together. Add more water if its needed.

Step 5

Roll your ball of dough on a floured surface.

Step 6

Transfer your dough to a pie dish and fold over the edges.

Step 7

Prick the dough with a fork on the sides and the bottom.

Step 8

If you are baking it immediately, I would recommend using pie stones on the bottom. If not, store in the fridge and bake it when you are ready. **
