Comment préparer Our Favorite Pie Crust Recipe How To Make A Tender Pie Crust

In a large bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour (or King Arthur Baking Mellow Pastry Blend), 1 tablespoon buttermilk powder, ½ teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon white vinegar.
Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add ½ cup cold lard or vegetable shortening, and continue cutting until the mixture is evenly combined and resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add 6-8 tablespoons ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing lightly with a fork until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently form it into a disc. Wrap the disc in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 days).
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate.
Trim and crimp the edges of the crust. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent air bubbles.
For a pre-baked crust, line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment paper and bake for another 5-10 minutes, until lightly golden.
If using for a filled pie, bake according to your pie filling recipe.
