How to Make Dutch Koeken Pie Crust

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
  2. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Stir together the ice water and vinegar.
  4. Gradually add the ice water mixture to the flour and butter, mixing gently until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and form it into a disc.
  6. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 days).
  7. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to your desired thickness. (Tip: Roll from the center outwards to prevent tearing.)
  8. Carefully transfer the dough to your pie plate or tart pan.
  9. Trim and crimp the edges.
  10. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling.
  11. For a blind bake (if needed for your recipe), 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 and bake for another 5-10 minutes, until lightly golden.
  12. Fill with your favorite pie or tart filling and bake according to your recipe instructions.
