How to Make All Butter Pie Crust
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt.
- Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix!
- Form the dough into two discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disc of dough to your desired thickness. Carefully transfer to a pie plate.
- Add your pie filling.
- Roll out the second disc (if using for a double crust pie) and place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal.
- Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Bake according to your pie filling's instructions. (For a 9-inch pie, it's usually around 15-20 minutes for the crust at 375°F/190°C).
