Light Pie Crust


This is my staple pie crust. I have to admit, I'm definitely not the biggest crust fan out there. I kind of hate that the pie crust can be higher cal than what's actually in the crust (and believe me, I'm not a calorie counter). So for that reason, I like this crust. It's light, flaky, has good flavor, and doesn't contain half a days amount of calories in the crust alone. I do like a rich crust on occasion, but not for regular, weekly stuff. I have to admit, I've been debating on posting this because thick crust lovers out there will hate me.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup flour
1 Tbs oil
2-3 Tbs water
pinch of salt

Directions:
Mix all together and you should be able to form a pie crust ball

put in the middle of a greased 9inch pie pan and "mush and spread" (that's what I tell Sweet Pea). Heads up, it will be a thinner pie crust

...you could roll it out, but I'm not that sophisticated

I like to pre-bake mine at 350F for 5-8 minutes

...and the rest is up to you.
