Know what I love best about this video? "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" playing in the background! 🎄I've made this many times over the past few months, it's now my "go-to" for a quick crust and it gets rave reviews! I highly recommend this recipe. Thank you Linda, you're the best! xx
Hi NYCBrat.....this has also become my go-to crust. I made it for the Banoffee Pie recipe as a matter of fact. Thank you so much for your kind words and I love "have yourself a Merry Little Christmas", it's one of my favorites. Glad to hear you're enjoying this recipe as much as I am!! TFW God Bless, Linda
Just made this. I'm a multiple failer at homemade pie crust. It came out so, so amazingly. I burn water and I'm telling you that you can't mess it up. Will be using this recipe many more times. Thanks!
Thank you so much for putting the oil and milk pie crust on youtube. As a child in a large family, my Mama use to make pies using the oil and milk pie crust and roll the dough out between 2 sheets of wax paper. And she made lots of pies for the family. I never ask her for the measurements and has not been able to make a crust using oil and milk because I didn't know the measurements. She passed and I didn't have the recipe for the crust; I figured some of her sisters would know. I was surprised and saddened to find out they had no idea how to make this crust so the recipe was lost. I searched the webb and many many cookbooks but couldn't find that precious recipe. So I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for putting the milk and oil crust on UA-cam.
Hi Suzy! I'm so happy you found this recipe. Now you can make pie crusts and tell your children that this is how my mom made them. So be sure to write it down and pass it on to them. Let them watch you make the crusts. Thanks for watching! God Bless, Linda
I'm going to try this today. Thank you so much. I made a pie crust by Phyllis Stokes she put a yoke and hers. It came out great. I'm so glad you got your oil and milk recipe like your mom's. Now I'm going to try at to.
No. There wasn't premade pie dough back in the day. Your show is great and I fix a lot of your food and it comes out um um good Everytime. God bless you
Linda I have watched your pie crust videos over and over. When I was a young teenager in the middle 60's I remember my Gram was so excited when she saw frozen pie crust in the grocery store. That was the end of her making her own pie crust. She was a wonderful cook. I miss her dearly. Thanks for your videos.
I can't believe it! This is the EXACT recipe I've been using my whole life, taught to me by my mother, who used it her whole life, taught to her by her mother. I didn't know there was another way to make pie crust until I was waaaay into adulthood! LOL For those still undecided, I promise this crust lives up to the hype, and I've never had anything but compliments. The only difference is I use cling wrap to roll it out, it's more flexible than wax paper. Actually, if I'm only making one crust I usually don't even bother rolling it out, I just dump it in the pie plate and press it down with my hands. Easy and delicious! Two things: if you are making a blind crust, be sure to poke some holes in the bottom before baking, so it doesn't bubble up. Also, I have to disagree with her claim that you can't overwork this dough. You CAN overwork it, and the more you work it the tougher it can get. If you want light, melt-in-your-mouth crust, stop mixing as soon as all the flour is incorporated. Don't knead it, don't handle the dough any more than necessary., and you will be very pleased with the result.
@@starszasiostra6410 I have no idea, I’ve never done it. Seems like that much butter would be really rich. Also butter solidifies and oil doesn’t, so it will definitely affect the end result. Have you made this recipe yet? You might find the taste “buttery” enough. If you try it, let me know how it works out!
Thank you for sharing your time & talents with us! I never had the chance to spend time with my grandmothers or aunts in the kitchen...you made me feel like family. Hugs!!
I have been steady watching your recipe videos and you never let me down! I have been cooking for my family since I was 18 and I am 53 now. You always teach me something new and easy! Love it! Thank you so much for this! Excellent for quiches!
Hi Linda! I enjoyed your walking us through the various steps of this simple recipe. Thank you for the beautiful Christmas music that was playing in the background. That was truly comforting! Thanks so much for sharing this recipe with us. It warmed my heart to hear you mention how your Mom used to bake Lemon Meringue Pie for your dad because he liked it so much! May God continue to bless you always! 🙏
Linda, in appx. 1965 when I was young @ home my Gram saw pie crust at the grocery store. That ended her homemade pie crust. She was so excited about the pie crust. Thanks for the many pie crust recipes.
thank you so much . May God bless you . for the first time, i had NO STRESS i did not have to decipher how to freeze the butter then work it in to "pebbles" i am SO SO Happy thank you for sharing again I LOVE YOU
I had this recipe for pie crust years ago from a good friend and was looking for it again. Thanks! Her recipe used Crisco and you melted the Crisco and added it to the milk and beat it with an electric beater. Perfect every time. I will try yours! Merry Christmas
Oh my! I just found this recipe and can’t wait to try it. I have NEVER made a decent pie crust, biscuits or homemade bread in all my 70 years. I just know this will be a success and if it wasn’t 11:45 pm I think I would go make one NOW!😂🤣😂😂. Thank you for sharing so many great easy recipes!! 💖💖💖💖
dear Ms. Hands. 1st you sound like my Grandma. I am so glad I found you! I am making the pie crest now following your directions. the flour mix was very dry so I added more milk and oil and it will probably be oily! lol !! I had so much fun with you I thought you were in my kitchen! I am a retired person. I have spent my life as a police officer (in NYC), a Deputy sheriff (in Maryland) and public service in several capacities. I worked my way through college and obtained three degree AND I was a single parent. I tell you all of this because until 4 months ago...ALICE (me), couldn't cook! You have changed my life. thank you!
Hi Alice! Your dough will be fine if it feels like play dough. The moistness depends on the humidity in the flour and the air. I'm so happy you can relate to my cooking recipes. I try to keep things simple because that's what most people eat. I'm proud of you and all the fine accomplishments you've achieved. You are something special! I hope you'll be a fine cook before long!! Thank you for taking the time to write your story. It was wonderful! TFW and God bless you Alice.
@@Handsthatcook My pie crest TURNED OUT GREAT!!! My sweet potato pie......oh so good!! Thank you for keeping CALM during my cooking process last night and responding so quickly and so sweetly!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! Alice
I have never been good at homemade pie crust, as a matter of fact, store bought was better than mine. I tried this and it was perfect and soooo easy and delicious!
Thank you Patty! I love a success story. You can make this crust much faster than it takes to go to the store and buy one......and...it tastes so much better! TFW and taking the time to comment. God Bless, Linda
ethel newberry I have the very old Betty Crocker cookbook, it has an oil pie crust recipe similar to this with water instead of milk. I’m lazy so I mix the ingredients right in the pie plate with my fingers and press it into shape. So no rolling and no bowl to wash.
I will be your auntie or grandma sweetie. I lost my only son as a baby thru #miscarriage in 1991 and went on to have 3 StepKids 7 StepGrandKids and 1 Step~Great~GrandBaby... These videos give so much more to the viewer than just #Recipes...I just like you...have found that out... Bless you! My Momma & Grandmother's are in Heaven too.
Thank you so much for sharing this! I was looking for an easy pie crust recipe to follow and found your video. Did everything you said and it came out perfect!
Thank you for your wonderful video and most of all your patience . As for the finishing of the top of the pie , I remember seeing my mother using her thumb and push against the edge of the dish.
Thank you Linda, I wish I lived close to you! I've been trying to make a good pie crust for a long time now! I love watching and listening to you, I miss my grandmother every time I watch you. I learn much quicker watching someone cook rather than reading a recipe! I'll let you know how I do with your crust recipe. Wish me luck! : - )
Just remain calm, just remain calm. I LOVE that. Forwarding this wonderful tutorial on to some people that are trying to learn. Bless you for passing on this important skill.
Just found this and I can only say : THIS IS THE BEST!! No chilling in the fridge or cold butter (I can't afford butter) no wrapping in plastic wrap which make alot of waste. I made a coconut cream pie today, it is suprisingly great!! 💖 oh well might have to do extra excercise lol
I will try this recipe today. I will be filling the crust with apples. I love your voice. It is so calming. You are a very good teacher. My Mom was an excellent baker and cook. Those were the good old days with many fond memories. Happy New Year!
You are a life-saver! Stress-free is absolutely correct. Made an apple pie today using your pie crust recipe (added a few tbsp sugar and doubled up for top/bottom) and it came out perfectly. Thank you so much. New subscriber here :-)
Thanks for sharing, I had forgotten how to make a pie crust , I’m sure this is it ! My mother in law was the best cook and baker, she taught me how to make a pie crust,cookies,and how to can tomatoes.my house had all These things all over my kitchen , the cookies and pie didn’t last long my brothers in law came by almost every day and ate pie and filled up pockets with cookies ,must have been good of their mom.ha,ha she also showed Me how to make peanut butter brittle. I’ve never been a cook or baker, but my kids are grown with families So they didn’t starve. Thank God. But this brought so many fun memories to me.my mother in law was the best And her son was too, God picked him out for me, he was the best ever, I miss him so much💕💕👍👍😊 Thank you so much .you have a wonderful life, and God Bless you and your family.
This is so easy to make and so worth it. I don't anticipate any problems for you or anyone who hasn't been able to make a good pie crust. TFW God Bless, Linda
Thank you Linda. After many failed attempts throughout the years at pie crust making I’ve finally found one that doesn’t “work me” and I actually can say yessss I really made it!!! So happy you shared this recipe‼️😋
My mama used to use the wax paper method for rolling out pie crust with no flour and I do, too. Also, she used to flute her crusts by simply pinching it between her thumb and forefinger, which I also do. It makes a nice sort of angled flute. Her crusts didn't taste as good as yours, though. So I am going to use your easy recipe and finishing method. Perfection. Thank you!
best easiest recipe ever. I have experimented with three pie crust recipes and I told myself those would be the last one. omg my sweet potatoe pie was delish!
Thank you for sharing, reminds me what my mother did, and always came out beautiful. However she'd never share her recipes. I will give this a go, and let you know how it went. Not a very experienced cook, wanted to make something my family to enjoy. Again thank you
Hands That Cook....YOU ARE AN ANGLE. WOW...NEVER COULD MAKE A GOOD PIE CRUST. NOW I WILL BE ABLE TO DO IT. You have hands that cook and you are a super teacher. I am a retired College Professor and I AM QUALIFED to judge. God Bless You.
Thanks so much for this fairly stress-free pie crust! It's really really easy by watching how you make it. Thanks once again and God bless you, granny.
I finished your video and went straight to kitchen and made 2 batches of dough, and opened a big can of pumpkin, and made two pies. Sitting here as I type munching it with a big dollop of whip cream. It is delicious. The crust is great. This is my go to crust from now on. So easy to make. And it's no fail. Husband really likes it. Many Thanks to you for taking the time to give us guidance for an easy and great tasting crust.... God Bless you and yours and keep you safe.
Thank you for this recipe. It's faster and i love the fact that it doesn't require butter. It's also less oily in comparison to other similar recipes. I'll be trying this out thus weekend.
My mom made this as long as I knew. As a young wife, I looked at the 2 crust recipes and decided oil for me! Perfect crust every time! My mom in law complains about her crust but refuses to go to oil! You are RIGHT! Easy and perfect, flaky etc.. every time. Thanks! Proof to hubby! Lol.
Hi Fab, you'll be amazed at not only the simplicity but the taste of this easy crust. I make it when I'm in a big hurry or have a bit of a lazy streak that day. TFW and commenting God Bless, Linda
XOXO thx for sharing this, a amish lady here taught me a recipe very simular to yours there. I had to ask this amish lady for her recipe because she sold pies at a Amish Bake Stand that was in front of my families ceramic store all the time and man this one pecan pie she makes sold me on her pie crust. Happy baking darling
That you show that even the best and experienced bakers can make pies that aren't perfect, so I am allowed to make less than perfect pies, is a real relief. As you say, stay relaxed and don't rush. And have fun! It's not the end of the world if you don't win first prize.
Hi Linda! My pie crust turned out great! I don't think I have ever made such a good pie crust! Thanks for posting this wonderful recipe! God bless you and your family! Have a beautiful and blessed Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Hey Pamela....I'm so happy it worked out for you but it should work out for anyone that makes it! Have a blessed Christmas and New Year! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment God Bless, Linda
I just came across your easy pie crust recipe and I love it! Today....i just made my first 9' pie crust only and realized why I've never made a 🥧before LOL it was work! overall, I got the recipe done & pie crust in the oven 4 my 🍌 pudding pie! It turned out just right! But for sure, I am going to try this flour, oil, salt& milk🥛 recipe!😚🙏 Instead of shortening! Love your video Linda!
I have made this recipe so many times and literally all of them came out great in no time. After getting confused and failing at other pie recipes this one is just perfect for the shortage of ingredients and machines I have. Thank you so much for this because it's literally perfect for a sweet and a savory pie. 👍👍
You're just the sweetest UA-camr! You sound like a North Carolinian. (My home state) I can't wait to try your recipe. I'm too old and stressed to be fighting against time with butter recipes for pie crusts.
2late...thank you for the nice compliment! I'm actually in Alabama and we are sweet here as well! LOL! This truly is stress free and I use it often. I hope you enjoy it!!! TFW God Bless, Linda
Mary....Happy Thanksgiving!! I made an apple pie last night using this recipe. When I watched the original video making this pie crust she was making 8" pies.....hardly anyone makes 8" pies these days. Usually 9" pies are made by most and I found this too skimpy for a 2 crust 9" pie so this is how I increased it: 3 cups flour, 1-1/4 tsp. salt, 3/4 cups oil and 1/4 + 1/8 cups milk.....just a heads up if you also found this a little shy of what you need for a 2 crust pie....have a great day tomorrow!! TFW God Bless, Linda
Thank you Linda. I am so happy that I decided to look up a recipe on UA-cam and I found you. I look forward to baking a pie. Have a Blessed Christmas and a wonderful 2024. 🎅🏻🎄😊
It’s April 28,2020 I’m lockdown for COVID-19 , n have all these ingredients. After reading all these comments I will use this for my 🍎 Apple pie. Thks for sharing this crust
Thank you so much sweetie. I enjoy listening and watching you give instructions on how to make the pie crust. You make it look so easy. I'm still scared to try to make a pie but I'll eventually try. God bless you for sharing with us.
M.V., Hi! This is so easy...let go of that fear and you'll be so proud of yourself. You'll feel so accomplished....go for it, it's the perfect season to impress!! TFW God Bless, Linda
@@m.v.1230 I have a drop sugar cookie you can decorate and several other types of cookies. Go to MY homepage (just click on Hands That Cook and it should take you there) click on the magnifying glass, when the box opens type in cookies and they should all come up. TFW God Bless, Linda
Thank you for making smoothly crust pie..great ..you do have a lot of patience..god bless you !! ...I LOVE OUR FRANK SINATRA WITH THAT LOVELY CHRISTMAS SONG ....THOUSANDS OF THANK YOUS
Hi Joyce, I've made a few of them too....so easy to be so good. They really do take the stress out of the holidays (or any other day!) TFW God Bless, Linda
You are amazing!!!!! I adore this video!!!! Great job on your crust!! When I first started making my own pie crusts the hardest thing for me was learning they will not be perfect you will have to patch it grom time to time you will have to start over from time to time its all about practice the more you make the easier it becomes but even the worst looking crust still tastes amazing and then time to time you get lucky and get a crust that looks beautiful its best to try different recipes and figure out what works best for you!!! Places that have higer humidity may nit require so much water verses places that are dryer may require a little more I did try this crust out and it worked well my family didnt even notice i had changed anything so it does work it is easy and it tastes wonderful!!!!! Have a blessed day id love to see you make a blackberry cobbler!!!!! Thank you for this video!!
The crust you were telling me all about! How simple. I never would of imagined. I wish I could of tasted your mom's baking, Linda. That's a lovely pie plate. Have a wonderful and relaxing evening. 💚
Hey Julia!! I know you can make this crust and I'm excited for you!!!! Woo Hoo!!! You would have loved my mom. She was very, very intelligent, quick witted, fun loving and laid back funny. I enjoyed her company so much. I really miss her! I bought the pie plate and matching server while on sale on QVC, a shopping network here in the states. Do you have access to QVC there?? I've gotten some good deals on that shopping channel. I hope you are doing well Julia. Make a pie and let me know what you think of this dough. God Bless and hope to hear from you soon. Linda
Hands That Cook I hope we can talk before the holidays. My house will be filled with teens and Tweens. Both of my nieces love to bake, but one does more than the other. If I ask her to, she'll bake while I watch. But, this pie crust is so ridiculously easy...I'll never buy the roll out stuff again. We have a Canadian shopping channel that sells almost everything QVC does. When the Canadian dollar was higher than the US, I ordered a few things from QVC. It's funny...I bought my niece some fake diamond stud earrings, but set in 18k gold. QVC has a simulated diamond called Diamonique, and on the Canadian channel, its called Diamonelle. The same man selling on the US channel the "creator" of their fake diamonds is the same guy that created the Canadian fake diamonds. Lol. Anyhow, God Bless you, my dear friend!
Thank you for an easy pie crust video. I never had good luck with them. Also love your videos on the electric pressure cooker. My husband bought one for me a few days ago. Gonna try it out tomorrow for the first time. Anxious to try your 'sausage & cabbage' recipe! We also love soft tender cabbage! So, Thank You' again. Happy Holidays ! Peggy in KY
Hi Peggy. You will love using this crust recipe. There will be no surprises when you bake it and the pressure cooker recipes take all the long wait out of dinner and delivers a really tender meat. TFW and taking the time to comment. God Bless, Linda
UR amazing and I really enjoyed this video. I just like you. I erased those other comments. You're the best crust maker to me. Have a joyous holiday season!
I use this recipe when I don't feel like using the longer method....it works just fine. The taste is good but it isn't as flaky as the real thing. TFW and commenting. God Bless, Linda
It's December 18 and I'm Happily Watching this Video. God Bless You and Your Family. Enjoy Your Holidays As Well. Thank You very much For Sharing Your Recipe.

Pls tell me the measuremet of oil for3cups flour
@@lailasuresh8033 It should work with 1/4 cup more oil. TFW God bless!!

My Momma & Grandmother's are in Heaven too.
I'm the same same. No Grandma, Mom or Aunt. I love this.
I do not have either mom, aunt, sisters or children-no relatives at all and love this video-feels like I am at her home
Thank you so much for sharing this! I was looking for an easy pie crust recipe to follow and found your video. Did everything you said and it came out perfect!
Thanks for watching and I'm glad your's came out perfect. It's a fool proof recipe. God Bless, Linda
Thank you for your wonderful video and most of all your patience . As for the finishing of the top of the pie , I remember seeing my mother using her thumb and push against the edge of the dish.
I found this, and hands down it is a winner. Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed life.😊
I love the great old music 🎶 in the background!! We love pies 🥧 too!!! 💕 Thank you for sharing your skills with us!!
Linda, I want to thank you so very much for this amazing pie crust recipe. It is the first time I have been able to roll out a beautiful pie.
Love, Love, Love this pie crust! Thank you so much! This is easiest, flakiest, most delicious crust you'll ever make and eat!
Hi S and Merry Christmas! I'm so glad you're enjoying this easy pie crust. I think it's delicious too! TFW God Bless, Linda
Can I use it for steak or chicken pies as well
Thank you Linda, I wish I lived close to you! I've been trying to make a good pie crust for a long time now! I love watching and listening to you, I miss my grandmother every time I watch you. I learn much quicker watching someone cook rather than reading a recipe! I'll let you know how I do with your crust recipe. Wish me luck! : - )
Hi Patricia, I know you'll be fine with this crust but please let me know how it comes out for you. TFW God bless!!
Just remain calm, just remain calm. I LOVE that. Forwarding this wonderful tutorial on to some people that are trying to learn. Bless you for passing on this important skill.
Thank you Brenda. I try....but don't always succeed! TFW God Bless, Linda

Just found this and I can only say : THIS IS THE BEST!! No chilling in the fridge or cold butter (I can't afford butter) no wrapping in plastic wrap which make alot of waste. I made a coconut cream pie today, it is suprisingly great!! 💖 oh well might have to do extra excercise lol
I will try this recipe today. I will be filling the crust with apples. I love your voice. It is so calming. You are a very good teacher. My Mom was an excellent baker and cook. Those were the good old days with many fond memories. Happy New Year!
Hope you enjoy
You are a life-saver! Stress-free is absolutely correct. Made an apple pie today using your pie crust recipe (added a few tbsp sugar and doubled up for top/bottom) and it came out perfectly. Thank you so much. New subscriber here :-)
Fantastic! Welcome to my channel. I hope you take the time to browse to find more great recipes!! TFW God bless!!!
I tried this and I was amazed it's turned out beautiful . God bless you and thank you Linda.
Was the crust real greasy hun?
Thanks for sharing, I had forgotten how to make a pie crust , I’m sure this is it ! My mother in law was the best cook and baker, she taught me how to make a pie crust,cookies,and how to can tomatoes.my house had all
These things all over my kitchen , the cookies and pie didn’t last long my brothers in law came by almost every day and ate pie and filled up pockets with cookies ,must have been good of their mom.ha,ha she also showed
Me how to make peanut butter brittle. I’ve never been a cook or baker, but my kids are grown with families
So they didn’t starve. Thank God. But this brought so many fun memories to me.my mother in law was the best
And her son was too, God picked him out for me, he was the best ever, I miss him so much💕💕👍👍😊
Thank you so much .you have a wonderful life, and God Bless you and your family.
I can't wait to try this!!! I've never been to make a decent crust and gave up trying many years ago. Loved your video! Thanks!
This is so easy to make and so worth it. I don't anticipate any problems for you or anyone who hasn't been able to make a good pie crust. TFW God Bless, Linda
Thank you Linda. After many failed attempts throughout the years at pie crust making I’ve finally found one that doesn’t “work me” and I actually can say yessss I really made it!!! So happy you shared this recipe‼️😋
Thank you, this is how to make a stress free, light and crispy pie crust.
I can’t believe how simple, yet sooo delicious😊. I did it! Thank you for this wonderful easy recipe. Please share more.
My mama used to use the wax paper method for rolling out pie crust with no flour and I do, too. Also, she used to flute her crusts by simply pinching it between her thumb and forefinger, which I also do. It makes a nice sort of angled flute. Her crusts didn't taste as good as yours, though. So I am going to use your easy recipe and finishing method. Perfection. Thank you!
aww i love hearing your voice & i will definitely try your crust.
I'm going to try this tomorrow when i make a fresh Apple Pie. 😋😋 can't wait. I never did get my mom's recipe. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much!! Ive been craving pie forever..and now i can make some! Have an amazing rest of your day!
best easiest recipe ever. I have experimented with three pie crust recipes and I told myself those would be the last one. omg my sweet potatoe pie was delish!
Thank you for sharing, reminds me what my mother did, and always came out beautiful. However she'd never share her recipes. I will give this a go, and let you know how it went. Not a very experienced cook, wanted to make something my family to enjoy. Again thank you
Made my pie, my family love it, couldn't be more happy. Wife told me I'm on pie duty from now on, my crust was awesome. Thanks again, God Bless
This is my first time making a from scratch pie crust thank u so much what an amazing teacher u are thank you!!!!!!
Hi Amy! I'm so glad you made this easy pie crust and like it!!! TFW God bless
This is wonderful! I love your calming voice. Thanks
Hi Kiyoko...you'll enjoy the ease of this good crust!! TFW, God Bless, Linda
Hands That Cook Awww thanks Linda! You're so sweet!
Can't wait to try this pie crust. Your a sweetheart!
This is the pie crust recipe my Mom taught me many years ago ;-)
Hands That Cook....YOU ARE AN ANGLE. WOW...NEVER COULD MAKE A GOOD PIE CRUST.
NOW I WILL BE ABLE TO DO IT. You have hands that cook and you are a super teacher.
I am a retired College Professor and I AM QUALIFED to judge. God Bless You.
I don't have a food processor so this is a crust I could try. Thanks.
love this video great pie crust and love the Christmas playing in the background
TY!! I hope you enjoy this easy crust! God bless!
Thanks so much for this fairly stress-free pie crust! It's really really easy by watching how you make it. Thanks once again and God bless you, granny.
I finished your video and went straight to kitchen and made 2 batches of dough, and opened a big can of pumpkin, and made two pies. Sitting here as I type munching it with a big dollop of whip cream. It is delicious. The crust is great. This is my go to crust from now on. So easy to make. And it's no fail. Husband really likes it. Many Thanks to you for taking the time to give us guidance for an easy and great tasting crust.... God Bless you and yours and keep you safe.
Hi Sharon! I'm so glad this easy recipe worked out for you. It really is fail proof!!! TFW God Bless, Linda
made this pie crust & it came out GR8 ! Thanks so much!
Great to hear that...I knew it would!! TFW and taking the time to let me know....God Bless, Linda
Thank you for this recipe. It's faster and i love the fact that it doesn't require butter. It's also less oily in comparison to other similar recipes.
I'll be trying this out thus weekend.
My mom made this as long as I knew. As a young wife, I looked at the 2 crust recipes and decided oil for me! Perfect crust every time! My mom in law complains about her crust but refuses to go to oil! You are RIGHT! Easy and perfect, flaky etc.. every time. Thanks! Proof to hubby! Lol.
Thank you Hands. You take the guess work and dread out of making homemade pie crust! I will make this the next time instead of store bought.
Hi Fab, you'll be amazed at not only the simplicity but the taste of this easy crust. I make it when I'm in a big hurry or have a bit of a lazy streak that day. TFW and commenting God Bless, Linda
I just made a pumpkin pie with this pie crust and everyone loved it 🥰 thank you!
Did you blind bake the pie first? Or just vent the bottom with a fork & added your pie filling?
XOXO thx for sharing this, a amish lady here taught me a recipe very simular to yours there. I had to ask this amish lady for her recipe because she sold pies at a Amish Bake Stand that was in front of my families ceramic store all the time and man this one pecan pie she makes sold me on her pie crust. Happy baking darling
Thank you Teasers.....enjoy this easy no fail crust!!! TFW and commenting. God Bless, Linda
I thank you for making this video, sweet kind lady! This will be my go to crust for my Sweet Potato pie! Thank you lovely!
That you show that even the best and experienced bakers can make pies that aren't perfect, so I am allowed to make less than perfect pies, is a real relief. As you say, stay relaxed and don't rush. And have fun! It's not the end of the world if you don't win first prize.
omg ,was looking . made pumpkin pie with home made crust .......PERFECT!!!!!!
Hi Linda! My pie crust turned out great! I don't think I have ever made such a good pie crust! Thanks for posting this wonderful recipe! God bless you and your family! Have a beautiful and blessed Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Hey Pamela....I'm so happy it worked out for you but it should work out for anyone that makes it! Have a blessed Christmas and New Year! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment God Bless, Linda
i am going to try this, because i used to wonder why butter why not oil... so now i will make it thanks.
I just came across your easy pie crust recipe and I love it! Today....i just made my first 9' pie crust only and realized why I've never made a 🥧before
LOL it was work!
overall, I got the recipe done & pie crust in the oven 4 my 🍌 pudding pie!
It turned out just right!
But for sure, I am going to try this flour, oil, salt& milk🥛 recipe!😚🙏
Instead of shortening!
Love your video Linda!
Thank you Odette..I know this will work out fine for you! TFW and God Bless, Linda
I like your pie plate it’s beautiful
I have made this recipe so many times and literally all of them came out great in no time.
After getting confused and failing at other pie recipes this one is just perfect for the shortage of ingredients and machines I have.
Thank you so much for this because it's literally perfect for a sweet and a savory pie. 👍👍
I’m going to try this. I’ve never done a pie crust from scratch...this looks less complicated to make. Thank you!
I loved watching your video. I can't wait to make this pie crust. God bless you !
well everyone loved the pie crust. this will be a staple in my household. thanks so much for sharing. happy holidays to you and your family.
Thank you Mary, I'm happy this worked out for you. It always has for me. Merry Christmas to you and your family! God Bless, Linda
You're just the sweetest UA-camr! You sound like a North Carolinian. (My home state) I can't wait to try your recipe. I'm too old and stressed to be fighting against time with butter recipes for pie crusts.
2late...thank you for the nice compliment! I'm actually in Alabama and we are sweet here as well! LOL! This truly is stress free and I use it often. I hope you enjoy it!!! TFW God Bless, Linda
I just put my very first pie in the oven thanks for the pie crust tutorial.
Mary....Happy Thanksgiving!! I made an apple pie last night using this recipe. When I watched the original video making this pie crust she was making 8" pies.....hardly anyone makes 8" pies these days. Usually 9" pies are made by most and I found this too skimpy for a 2 crust 9" pie so this is how I increased it: 3 cups flour, 1-1/4 tsp. salt, 3/4 cups oil and 1/4 + 1/8 cups milk.....just a heads up if you also found this a little shy of what you need for a 2 crust pie....have a great day tomorrow!! TFW God Bless, Linda
Hands That Cook thank you and you enjoy your Thanksgiving
Thank you Linda. I am so happy that I decided to look up a recipe on UA-cam and I found you.
I look forward to baking a pie. Have a Blessed Christmas and a wonderful 2024. 🎅🏻🎄😊
It’s April 28,2020 I’m lockdown for COVID-19 , n have all these ingredients. After reading all these comments I will use this for my 🍎 Apple pie. Thks for sharing this crust
Thank you, love this reciepe. So much easier. Lov it, lov it. God Bless you an yours
Thank you so much sweetie. I enjoy listening and watching you give instructions on how to make the pie crust. You make it look so easy. I'm still scared to try to make a pie but I'll eventually try. God bless you for sharing with us.
M.V., Hi! This is so easy...let go of that fear and you'll be so proud of yourself. You'll feel so accomplished....go for it, it's the perfect season to impress!! TFW God Bless, Linda
Hands That Cook do you have videos making holiday cookies? I would love to watch a video of gingerbread and or sugar cookies.
@@m.v.1230 I have a drop sugar cookie you can decorate and several other types of cookies. Go to MY homepage (just click on Hands That Cook and it should take you there) click on the magnifying glass, when the box opens type in cookies and they should all come up. TFW God Bless, Linda
Thank you for making smoothly crust pie..great ..you do have a lot of patience..god bless you !! ...I LOVE OUR FRANK SINATRA WITH THAT LOVELY CHRISTMAS SONG ....THOUSANDS OF THANK YOUS
This is an easy foolproof crust. I hope you enjoy it. I like Frank Sinatra too!! TFW God bless
This is the best crust recipe and I've made 4 so far...I add a teaspoon of sugar too.
Thank you for sharing Linda!
Hi Joyce, I've made a few of them too....so easy to be so good. They really do take the stress out of the holidays (or any other day!) TFW God Bless, Linda
Good to know about the sugar Thank U
Oh my goodness, that IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL PIE PLATE. That alone would make a beautiful pie! 👍🏼
You are amazing!!!!! I adore this video!!!! Great job on your crust!! When I first started making my own pie crusts the hardest thing for me was learning they will not be perfect you will have to patch it grom time to time you will have to start over from time to time its all about practice the more you make the easier it becomes but even the worst looking crust still tastes amazing and then time to time you get lucky and get a crust that looks beautiful its best to try different recipes and figure out what works best for you!!! Places that have higer humidity may nit require so much water verses places that are dryer may require a little more I did try this crust out and it worked well my family didnt even notice i had changed anything so it does work it is easy and it tastes wonderful!!!!! Have a blessed day id love to see you make a blackberry cobbler!!!!! Thank you for this video!!
I ❣️ this lady!! 🤗
I will use this recipe. It looks great thank you and God bless you.
The crust you were telling me all about! How simple. I never would of imagined. I wish I could of tasted your mom's baking, Linda. That's a lovely pie plate. Have a wonderful and relaxing evening. 💚
Hey Julia!! I know you can make this crust and I'm excited for you!!!! Woo Hoo!!! You would have loved my mom. She was very, very intelligent, quick witted, fun loving and laid back funny. I enjoyed her company so much. I really miss her! I bought the pie plate and matching server while on sale on QVC, a shopping network here in the states. Do you have access to QVC there?? I've gotten some good deals on that shopping channel. I hope you are doing well Julia. Make a pie and let me know what you think of this dough. God Bless and hope to hear from you soon. Linda
Hands That Cook I hope we can talk before the holidays. My house will be filled with teens and Tweens. Both of my nieces love to bake, but one does more than the other. If I ask her to, she'll bake while I watch. But, this pie crust is so ridiculously easy...I'll never buy the roll out stuff again. We have a Canadian shopping channel that sells almost everything QVC does. When the Canadian dollar was higher than the US, I ordered a few things from QVC. It's funny...I bought my niece some fake diamond stud earrings, but set in 18k gold. QVC has a simulated diamond called Diamonique, and on the Canadian channel, its called Diamonelle. The same man selling on the US channel the "creator" of their fake diamonds is the same guy that created the Canadian fake diamonds. Lol. Anyhow, God Bless you, my dear friend!
Linda,
Thank you for sharing this! This really is stress free!
God bless you!
It's a wonderful crust. I hope you enjoy using it. I've used it several times and it's never failed. TFW God Bless, Linda
Rhonda C. S
I enjoyed you making the easy pie crust , can’ wait to make the crust !
Thank you for an easy pie crust video. I never had good luck with them. Also love your videos on the electric pressure cooker. My husband bought one for me a few days ago. Gonna try it out tomorrow for the first time. Anxious to try your 'sausage & cabbage' recipe! We also love soft tender cabbage! So, Thank You' again. Happy Holidays ! Peggy in KY
Hi Peggy. You will love using this crust recipe. There will be no surprises when you bake it and the pressure cooker recipes take all the long wait out of dinner and delivers a really tender meat. TFW and taking the time to comment. God Bless, Linda
This is the best pie crust. Just made it. Thanks.
Hi Lisa, This always works for me. I use it all the time and I'm so glad you like it!!
TFW God Bless

Thank you! I have never seen that one! I can 't wait to try that one!
I use this recipe when I don't feel like using the longer method....it works just fine. The taste is good but it isn't as flaky as the real thing. TFW and commenting. God Bless, Linda
It's December 18 and I'm Happily
