A classic crust—with less fat than usual. This recipe makes one 9-inch crust.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons natural cane sugar
- 6 tablespoons cold butter
- 5-5 1/2 tablespoons ice water
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in half of the butter until mixture is crumbly. Toss in remaining butter; cut in until mixture resembles dime-size pieces. (Work quickly so everything stays cold.)
- Add 3 tablespoons ice water and vinegar; stir lightly with a fork. Add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dough is evenly moist (holds together when squeezed) but not soaking.
- Pat dough into a smooth, round disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, until ready to use.
