Zubereitung von Shortcrust Pastry
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, sift together 250g plain flour, 2 tsp baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
- Cut in 125g cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (If using a food processor, pulse until just combined).
- For sweet pastry, stir in 2 tsp granulated sugar.
- Gradually add 100-125ml ice water, mixing until the dough just comes together. If using a food processor, add the water gradually while pulsing until the dough forms a ball.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently form into a disc.
- Wrap the dough in cling film and chill for at least 30 minutes before rolling out and baking.
- Roll out the dough to your desired thickness and use to line your pie or tart tin.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
- Let cool completely before filling.
