How to Make Low Fat Honey Wheat Pie Crust

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup wheat bran, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Add 1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise and 2 tablespoons honey. Stir with a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing with a fork until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
Lightly flour a clean surface with wheat bran. Turn the dough out onto the surface and gently roll it out to your desired thickness.
Carefully transfer the dough to a pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Let cool completely before filling with your favorite pie recipe.
