Zubereitung von Shortbread Crust

Whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the ice water, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to a 12-inch circle.
Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
Brush the crust with the beaten egg yolk.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
Let the crust cool completely before adding your pie filling.
