    As an adult with autism baking has always been a weakness of mine due to my difficulty of understanding verbal descriptions. In so many cases of baking it comes down to the texture needed for a proper outcome. You not only verbally explian but you physically show how it should and should not look which helps me immensely. Ive made your yesterday and my own autistic daughter who's extremely picky loves them, we also love your cinnamon. Now I'm going to be making your chicken pot pie for Christmas and using your pie crust recipe which is something I have not attempted before. My mommy was the baker in out family she passed away on the 5th and this will be my first Christmas without her. I needed a way to prosses my grief your baking is helping me greatly. Thank you.

First bite of the pie, my husband said Did you make this! Did you make this? I replied yes. Sorry if it's bad, you know I dont do pie shells. He replied "dont throw this recipe away ever! This is amazing. This is the best crust I've ever had." With all that being said. Thank you. I couldn't have done it without your awesome instructions.

    Tip if you don't have a food processor: Put the butter in the freezer 15 minutes and then use a grater to grate 2/3 of the butter and cube the rest. It will be so much easier to mix by hand then

    This crust was a home run! Thank you so much. I live in Germany, pies aren’t a thing here so I splurged on a pie dish from England. But we also don’t have premade crusts. I also don’t have a food processor. I had so many problems with other recipes like it being too stretchy, one that kept on ripping apart (it was enfuriating) but this came together like a charm!

    I usually spend my sundays making recipes to freeze for my boyfriend to defrost the night before and take for his lunches throughout the week. I make a tourtiere meat pie filling and make them into hand pies then fill my freezer with 2 hand pies per ziplock. I make empanada filling, apple pie filling… the possibilities are endless! Thank you for this great video. I tried making pie dough using lard… what a flop! Butter is best.

    Ok. So I never made snowflakes in school..totally cut it wrong...try, try again! The pie crust so far looks great..it's in the freezer. This is my first time following this recipe..praying it comes out good! On another note, I'm using sugar to fill the foil before blind baking as I don't have pie weights. A trick from a friend. You can save and reuse the sugar as pie weight over and over.

    My grandma taught me as a young child to sub a bit of Lard for Crisco (we never made butter crusts) as well as using the least amount of liquid possible. The dough is a pain to work with (very fragile) but the flavor is old fashioned goodness.
    Another recipe given to me by a Southern girl uses self rising flour. It reminds me of the crust of Marie Calendar pies.

      @nomado3650 2 роки тому

      Part way through. Since the temperature is high, it takes just 15 min. The whole process does take some effort but it’s worth it, the crust stays flaky not soggy.

      You totally can use that crust to bake an apple pie all at once. I divide it and use for the bottom and top crusts. Less time - you don’t need to do blind bake - but the result is as fabulous. I freeze that dough as well. Hope this helps :)
