How to Make Fat Free Pie Crust

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, graham cracker crumbs, and salt. Mix well.
  3. Gradually add the ice water, mixing until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for a few seconds until it comes together.
  5. Roll out the dough to your desired thickness (about 1/8 inch) and carefully transfer it to a 9-inch pie plate.
  6. Trim and crimp the edges of the crust.
  7. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork several times to prevent bubbling.
  8. Bake for 13 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. If using for a filled pie, proceed with your filling recipe. If baking as a stand-alone crust, you may want to bake for a couple of minutes longer for more browning.
