6
Tablespoons ice cold water
Makes 2
crusts
Combine
all ingredients in your food processor container. Using steel
blade,
process until dough forms a ball and pulls away from the blade, less
than 1
minute. Do not over-process or your dough will become tough. Divide
into two
balls and roll out to fit pie pans, 9-inch or 10-inch. (I put the
dough
between two sheets of wax paper to roll out for easier clean-up and
transfer
to the pie pan.)
