How to Make Cookie Pie Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel (or orange peel), and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in 1 large egg yolk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Press the dough evenly into a 9-inch pie pan. Trim and crimp the edges.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and lightly set.
  7. Let the crust cool completely in the pan before adding your favorite pie filling.
