Cattiecann's Pie Crust

Ingredients

• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups butter, cut into pea-size pieces
• 1 large egg, slightly beaten
• 1 teaspoon vinegar
• 3 fluid ounces cold water

Directions

1. 1

   In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour and salt until well blended.

2. 2

   Cut the butter into pea size pieces and add to the flour. (This sometimes gets messy so have a towel handy.).

3. 3

   Place the slightly beaten egg and vinegar in a measuring cup and add enough cold water to equal 1/2 cup of total liquid. Pour this into the flour mixture and mix until the dough can form a large ball.

4. 4

   Divide dough into four equal portions. You can wrap in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator or freezer. This dough can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
