How to Make Foolproof Pie Dough With Vodka
- Whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ cup granulated sugar in a large bowl.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, and ½ cup cold vegetable shortening using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add 1 tablespoon vodka and 6-8 tablespoons ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing gently with a fork until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
- Divide the dough in half, flatten each half into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 45 minutes (or up to 2 days).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disk of dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer to a 9-inch pie plate.
- Trim and crimp the edges. Fill with your favorite pie filling and bake according to the filling's recipe instructions. Repeat with the second disk of dough for a double-crust pie.
