Let’s get your favorite pie back on the table! Buttery, flaky and low net carb, this crust is perfect for both sweet or savory pies – no rocket science required!
Ingredients
Directions
- Add all dry ingredients into a food processor or large bowl. Mix by pulsing or whisking.
- Add cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients, process (or cut in using a fork or pastry cutter) until butter pieces are the size of peas. If using a food processor, empty mixture into a large bowl.
- Sprinkle water over mixture 1 Tbsp at a time. Using a rubber spatula, mix in a folding motion, pressing down on dough until it is slightly tacky and comes together; flatten into a 4-inch disc and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 45 minutes (up to two days in the refrigerator).
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Dust working surface with Carbonaut baking mix. Roll out refrigerated dough into a 12-inch circle (about 1/8 inch thick). Gather dough loosely around rolling pin and unroll into pie pan with 1-inch overhang. Ease dough into the pie pan by gently lifting edge of dough while pressing into plate bottom with other hand. Trim the overhang to ½ inch beyond lip of the pie pan. Flute dough or press the tines of a fork against dough to flatten against the rim of the pie plate.
- Refrigerate until dough is firm, about 30 minutes.
- Line the crust with foil and fill with pie weights. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove weights and continue baking for another 5 minutes with foil cover until crust is golden brown.
- Fill with your favorite pie filling (or our blueberry pie filling recipe) and bake at 350°F for 15 minutes covering edges of pie with foil to prevent overbrowning.
