To bake the pie crust, if you'll be making a baked pie, like pumpkin bake according to your pie recipe. If you need a baked pie shell, bake at 475 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Cool then fill with filling.
If your making homemade pumpkin pie and crust from scratch do you cook the filling separate?
This is my 5th video on how to make a pie crust, this is definitely the best one.. I like how you like to use your hands.. I subscribed 😊😊
@@tishamonet3406 for pumpkin pie, make the crust like in the video, make your pie filling and add it to the crust. Then back the pie according to your pumpkin pie recipe. I hope that helps.
@@love8hate501 I'm so glad you found the video helpful.
@@frugalfamilyhome I really did, I made my girlfriend a cherry pie,, my first pie ever, and you were right there with me 😊😊 had the phone next to the flour 😊😊 Thank You Very Much 🙏
This video was uploaded 7 years ago and to this day, everyday, you are still influencing hundreds of people like me in bettering their lives, even if it may be something small like making a pie. Youve had a huge impact and i hope you are proud of it. Thank you!
Wow, thank you. I'm glad I could help. That is my goal with each video I make to help people have confidence to cook or bake for themselves and their family.
@@frugalfamilyhomeI just watched this and thank you so much for this simple yet yummy looking pie crust. I’m in South Georgia and I want to make a pumpkin pie in June!!!
Yup! I used this last year and now I’m back again! Hahah
Same here, glad the video is still up. Pies are too expensive in the grocery store. I can buy the ingredients for half the price and make it without all the preservatives and chemicals. Now I know how easy it is II will continue this.

Easy, simple, and straight to the point. No pointless chatter in the beginning or blah blah blah-ness. It’s also a really good recipe for my shepherds pies. I keep coming back to it every time. Love it, great job.
Thank you!
At last! A decent pie crust recipe with minimal tools and basic ingredients.
Tried it. It was very good and flaky.
Thanks! I'll be trying it too
Edward Jaimes it literally says Grammar NAZI
Exactly what is it with ice water and vodka in a few recipe videos?? I liked how you kept it simple. 👌
Why that not good pls change it are you even educated in that sign
The easiest and BEST pie crust I've ever made!
Wish I had found this 25 years ago !
With 7 children and company coming each Thanksgiving I had lots of pies to make, and it was a chore indeed , my pies took me all night to make and I struggled with those pie crusts, no more thanks to your recipe, Thank You ❤❤
Using a black bowl was helpful to show how quickly the fat cuts into the flour. Thank you!
I have always shied away from pie crusts, because of many unsuccessful attempts. After watching this video, I was able to do it for the first time, I am overjoyed! Thank you for making it so simple and easy to follow! I will do it a few more times in the next few days to really lock it down!
Yay, I'm so glad your pie crust turned out. Thanks for letting me know this recipe was successful for you. And yes once you have it down you'll be able to make pie crusts without any problems. I'm so happy the video was helpful for you. :)
@@frugalfamilyhome
Do you have any videos about baking the crust? Do you poke it? Do you use Pie weights? Also off topic but is there a difference in baking times when using a glass dish? I’d like to attempt this for thanksgiving! Thanks so much for this recipe!!
@@joebaby1975 Sorry I didn't see this in time for Thanksgiving.
I don't have a video about baking a pie shell. For pies like pumpkin pie, or a crumble topped apple pie, you don't pre-bake the crust. Just add the filling and bake.
For cream pies, like banana cream, you'd bake the pie crust first and let cool. I bake mine at 475 for 8-10 minutes then cool. I prick the pie crust with a fork before baking and then bake. I don't use pie weights.
I do have a video for baking a raspberry pie that shows how to make a double crust pie if that is what you are looking for. Here's the link, ua-cam.com/video/F9m1Vr4CCyw/v-deo.html
I hope that answers your questions. I've always used a glass pie plate because that is what I have. I'm not sure about difference in baking times since I don't use metal pie pans.
Let me know if you have any other questions, I'll do my best to help.

Christmas is coming so I’ll make o e for then. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the information and it means a lot that you took the time to respond. Hope you and yours are well. Happy holidays!!
This was my first attempt at making pie crust myself. In the past I have purchased prepared crust for all my pies because I was intimidated at the potential for failure. It was a very simple recipe and the video has very helpful showing me the process step by step. I substituted butter for the shortening and it came out great! My family really enjoyed the results.
So glad you found the video helpful and your pie crust turned out great. Great job!
Using butter instead of lard or other oils makes all the difference in the world if you want your pie and pie crust to be enjoyable!!! Conventional pie crusts, (prefab types) lack flavor and make the pie far less palatable........
Thanks to the “Rona”, I’ve been trying out different homemade recipes. In going on my 42 years, I’ve never made pie crust from scratch. I have doubled your recipe and it’s now baking in the oven as chicken pot pie 🥧🥰🥰🥰
Oh, chicken pot pie sounds so good. Enjoy!
Same, making some chicken pot pie during corona. Will have it to break my fast for Ramadan
Simple and easy recipe. It’s my first time to make pie crust, I used your recipe, it was very successful and tasty. Thank you.
Made my first pie today! Thanks so much for sharing this! It turned out delicious and was so much easier than I was anticipating.
So glad your first pie turned out great.
I want to say thank you for sharing the information with us,I'm a 51 year young grandfather helping raise my grandson and the pies I'll be building is especially for him...thank you again.
You're very welcome.
It's simple, efficient, your voice isn't grating, or overly chipper thank you sane pie crust lady
I can not thank you enough for this recipe ... I've tried a lot of pie crust recipes for 25 years and yours always comes out perfect. Thank you so much! I watch your video every time I make a pie crust!
Laurie, I'm so glad you found the video helpful. You made my day.
Thank you, that was the best video on making a pie crust. Your video deserves to be higher ranked. Long form videos without excessive cutting and distracting music are the best instructional videos. Being able to SEE the whole process is so important because it shows how the dough is supposed to look like a long the way. And people can just fast forward if they already understand some parts.
Glad it was helpful!
love it. the best pie crust i have ever made. i used this to make a crust for a quiche.
Shelly, I have to tell you .. I've been using your pie crust recipe for years and yours is the only one I will use! Perfect every time. Thank you so much for being a part of my life forever! I use your crust recipe for dessert pies and also my home made chicken pot pies.
Great video! Hosting my first ever thanksgiving tomorrow; with this easy recipe, nothing can go wrong!

Well, that would seem to be the case but...things have a way of going wrong for me, even with simple recipes. :)
D. Lawrence omg same!!!!!
How was Thanks Giving 2 years ago?
How was thanks giving 5 years ago? :)
This girl is the bomb she got me through the holidays and I never made pie before in my life....... I learned how to make piecrust better than my mother and I learned how to make pumpkin pie berry pie apple pie cherry pie banana pudding pie...... things to this simple video
Glad you found the video helpful.
Well, at least she gives you ingredients. And years ago, the crust was made with Crisco. And she gets to the point !
i wish every baking tutorial was like this one. actually so perfect and straight to the point. it’s like i’m watching you over your shoulder while you bake
GREAT GREAT CAMERA ANGLE. Easy to follow your crimping style. Will keep this video for sure!!!!! Thanks
Just in the past two years I’ve started baking my family pies for the holidays. I always get premade pie crust. After watching this video will definitely try this recipe!! Straight forward simple and few ingredients ❤
I've always heard that it's difficult to make pie crust well....this looks great, thanks! I've got my pie weights ready!
It is with you ma'am that I learned how to make pie crust for pies for the first time. Because of that, I've been making pies since then, and they always turn out really well. Thank you for teaching us in a clear and concise manner.
Your calming voice really helps take away the fear factor! Thanks for KISS
Your video is 7 years old. It is a good one! Thanks.
I’ve been making my own pie crust for the last 2-3 yrs. Self taught but I’ve been looking for a tutorial video like this ever since. My crust are much better than store bought. Yet still not quite as nice as I’d like. Thank you for this video. I’m heading to the kitchen to try again.
Thanks for this! My friend made a homemade Strawberry and Rhubard pie and it absolutely inspired me to make an apple pie at home myself
Perfect every time…thank you for posting !
My first time making pie crust used your recipe and the crust was so light and flaky. Recipe was quick and simple 2 steps that I love😆 thank you👍
Jean, I'm so glad you liked the recipe.
I have just made it first ever pie crust, thank you!
I just made it! I added the flour and butter to the food processor and then added the water as you instructed, it was perfect thank you!
Great video, Shelly! I love making my pie crust from scratch, too!
Great video. Like that you get right to it and explain it in detail. I’ve tried a few times before and finally given up and started buying pie crust. Today I made pie crust from scratch and they turned out perfectly from your recipe! So happy to have finally accomplished this.
I just watched this video and it brings my grandmother's instruction back to me. She made hers the exact same, felt it and fingered it to feel it! That's the part I had forgotten for so many years. Thanks, I made the perfect raspberry pie yesterday and its GONE! :)
Wonderful! I'm so glad you liked the recipe.
Update: this crust is amazing! I tried another recipe for Christmas and it did not turn out so I couldn’t make my grandpa’s pie and I was so sad! I decided to give it another go and this recipe was perfect! I love your video and it was nice not having to chill the dough in the icebox for hours or even overnight! Thank you so much for sharing! My pecan pie was a HUGE hit!!!
Giving this a go! Wish me luck!
I'm so glad you liked the recipe and your pecan pie turned out great.
Wow this is probably the best flaky pastry dough recipe I've ever seen thank you so much and it also looks to be very easy to do.
You are so straightforward and to the point, yet very helpful with your instructions. Thank you so much!
Thanks and I'm glad you found the video helpful.
Great tip on pickubg ip t hgt e crust. I havent made one by scratch in years, but having hadbto go gluten-free I'm baking more as it's cheaper. I had forgotten how much fun bsking was. Thanks for the recipe good refresher!
Dear Shelly .. I LOVE LOVE your pie crust recipe. I have tried a ton of recipes through the years to no avail but yours is the best. Every single time I make a pie crust using your recipe it comes out perfect. Thank you so much!!!!
I'm so glad you like the recipe, Laurie.
This is exactly like my Irish Nan's recipe, and it's the best....simple and flaky
I have been wrestling with pie dough for 40 years. I tried your recipe and it turned out beautifully! Thank you so much for your simple UA-cam tutorial!
Wonderful! You are so welcome.
This was so simple! I must try. I just started learning how to make homemade pumpkin pie now I'm excited to make my own pie crust! Can't wait do to this. Thank you for the video! 😊
OMG I tried it first time and it came out PERFECT 😅
I always thought (and have read) pie crusts are really hard. But after watching this today, I tried it. My pies are currently baking as we speak. It's my first time ever but it didnt seem that hard! I'm super excited. Thank you!
Woohoo! I hope your pies turned out great.

The flavor is waaaaay better than store bought! They're flakey, but I think I overworked the dough :/ but it was my first time ever, so I have some more practice to do! But I really loved it. Thank you.
@@MalignDreams Sounds like it turned out really good for your first time. I'm glad you liked the recipe and the video was helpful.
Thank you for sharing the recipe and technique. My double pie crust turned out good..🙂
I tried this recipe and it was amazing. Super simple and extremely fresh, homemade tasting
Thank for sharing a easy, inexpensive pie recipe
Thank you so much for this! This was fool-proof, easy and calls for basic ingredients. I was initially so intimidated by all the overly complicated recipes up on other channels- but yours was proof of how beautiful things are often so simple haha.
Was my first try and it turned out PERFECT! Also, a hack I read was to chill your butter and water beforehand esp if you live in a warmer country as I do. Absolutely loved this!
So glad!
I'm so happy to see you can handmade pie crust cause everywhere online talks or pastry cutters and food processors which I have none of and don't feel comfortable using anyways.
This was very easy and looks absolutely amazing! I’m definitely going to try it soon!!!
Used your recipe now to unwind over the weekend. Thank you for the easy tutorial
I just tried this out....OMG I LOVE IT. I used it for a lattice work pie crust and it was wonderful!!!!!! You just got another subscriber
so easy the way she explains everything ...love the way she teaches
Thank you so much!
Why is watching this so satisfying?
This is the same as my mom's recipe and I watch this year after year to make sure I'm doing it right. Thank you so much for this visual.
So this was pretty easy and the visual was great of how you incorporated the shortening. I put my dough in a plastic bag and rolled it out so I did not have the extra flour mess. My daughter is picking all the sides off the veggie pot pie I made. She remarked how good it is and I have to say its quite good. Thanks
This is honestly the first video I looked up to make a pie crust, and I gotta say, I can't imagine going to look anywhere else. This makes a simple and easy pie crust that works for me.
Glad you liked the recipe.
if u have twice enough of dough, cut in half, make two of them, if u want crust on top for turkey pot pie! yummm
This is what I was wondering if it's the same recipe for pot pies!! Making chicken pot pie tonight. Lol
Thanks
Thank you so much for this video Shelly! I was totally ready to call all pie crust dough evil, LOL. Thanks to your video, I made pie crust and successfully made fried pies!!
I'm so glad to hear you had success with the pie dough and you found the video helpful. Thanks for letting me know.
Thank you! Makes the task looks possible! Love it
Those hands have done this 1000's of times before..I can tell..lol..great job! Looks incredible!
I know this video is 5 years old but idc. I had never made a pie crust before. I'm so glad I find this video. Out turned out perfect. So light, crispy, and flakey. Thank you so much
Glad I could help!
Sorry but this recipe has been a must for my 50 yrs making pies in Michigan. Didn't know there was another way. I guess Mich. was always lazy pie makers.ha ha
Thank you Soo much for your recipe!! I love the flakiness of the crust, reminds me of my grandmother's 🥰
You are so welcome!
This a great pie recipe! I have made and is great! Thank you 👍
Thank you for this. The easiest pie Crust video I've see and it was all long and drawn out. Live your outcome. Now I'm about to do it
You can do it!
I have been doing pies for a couple of years now and am always trying to perfect my recipes and i always have trouble with the browning on my edges and i always have them real thin so now i am levaing them thick and see if that helps thank you!!!
You know what you did right, imho? When the dough was a bit dry, you didn't pour extra water on the already wet part. You went to the part of the bowl that had the dry stuff and sprinkled the water there. Too many folks just keep adding it to a wet part and then think they can just knead it a bit to get it dispersed. I think you know what you are doing. Good to see that!
Thanks Doris.
Thank you! I'm definitely using your method.
Great!
Wanting to try making my first Pie crust this TG... wish me luck!
I ran out of store bought pie crust for my chicken pot pie so I looked up a video and found this it was super easy and simple had all the ingredients at home and the recipe was successful thank you! 🙏
You are so welcome!
@@frugalfamilyhomefor a sweet potato pie do you need to bake the crust a little bit first?
looks nice and ez thank you !!!😋
You are a great teacher, many thanks for your patience and knowledge.
You are very welcome
Amazing video I'm going to make chocolate tart, custard tart and jam tart
The best crust ever, thank you so much. I used butter. Was delicious.
Glad you liked it!!
I just like eating pie crust thanks for the video this is gonna be good
Your welcome!
Me too😂
Thank you. You're simplicity is fantastic!!
You are welcome!
So simple. So nice. So yummy. thank you for sharing
You're welcome.
This showed me exactly what I did wrong! I'm making a pie for Easter for my family
Thank you!
What a cute video! Thank you!
P.S. To avoid dairy, you can use "leaf" lard (snow white, odorless lard with a "clean" flavor) instead of Crisco or other trans fat version. (Cuz that stuff will kill ya! Type II diabetes, arteriosclerosis, and osteoporosis are just the beginning of problems that come from artifically hydrogenated fat.)
Thanks for a great video!
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll see if I can find it locally to give a try.
is that regular lard like they sell at wal mart?
@@janefromtennessee No, unfortunately you cannot get leaf lard from Walmart.
i have been using this recipe for years and it is the BEST. every other recipe i have used (that is t this one) doesnt compare. thank you for sharing :)
using this for my pies today making apple, pumpkin, and I think that's about it lots more baking to do woo-hoo
I used this recipe to make a cherry pie with my son. It is a great recipe, but I recommend tripling the recipe size to accommodate a large double-crusted pie.
I love the video! I didn't know it was so easy!
Thank you! I enjoyed this video and I'll try it soon with my buttermilk coconut pie. Love your kind, soothing voice. God bless.
Amazing, this would be why my dough gets so tacky. I use all the water that the recipe calls for instead of adding just enough to keep the dough together, thank you!
Your welcome!
I used this pie crust for lemon bars and they turned out GREAT 🍋 I'm going to use this recipe for everything!
Sounds great!
Very nice!!
Am following this one for sure....tks from india
Thank you so much for this detailed video, easy and with minimal ingredients.
You're welcome.
Do we have to pre-bake before adding our filling? And how do I prep if I want to prepare in advanced and freeze for a few days?
You bake with the filling in it. And you wrap the dough in plastic wrap and freeze in a ball.
Depends
On the filling
I want to personally thank you for this FANTASTIC pie recipe ❤️ My 12 year old daughter makes pies for the holidays and sells them to family and friends and your pie crust recipe is the BOMB 💣 last year the recipe we used was horrible 😥....THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
I'm so glad you liked the recipe.
AWESOME!!!
We’re making a key lime pie tomorrow and I was worried about having to make a crust from scratch because I don’t have much experience- but after watching this I feel like I can do it!
Hello and thanks for making this tutorial !
I'm planning to make my very first pumpkin pie next week :) and I'd like to know, if I have to pre-bake the pie dough before actually baking the pumpkin pie (with the pumpkin and the spices).
Hope you could help me with that,
Andrea
Andrea Mano For a pumpkin pie there is no need to precook the crust. Place your crust into the pie pan and then add your pumpkin pie filling and bake. You only need to pre-bake the crust if you won't be baking the pie in the oven, for pies like pudding or lemon meringue. I hope your pie turns our great!
+Frugal Family Home Thank you very much for your help! Your advice really makes sense to me :)
Have a nice day!
Andrea Mano this great thank
