Best Dougs Never Fail Pie Crust Recipes
AMISH NEVER FAIL PIE CRUST
I've had this recipe for a long time. It's the only crust my wife asks for whether I'm making pot pies, fruit pies or turnovers. It makes awesome homemade Hot Pockets too. You can substitute whole wheat flour for all or some of the AP flour. This is enough for a 9 inch 2 crust pie, two 9 inch single crust pies or 10-12 hot pockets. You can double the recipe if you have a really big mixing bowl for OAMC.

NO FAIL PIE CRUST I
I found this recipe years ago, and have not made any other since. This dough freezes very well.

NEVER FAIL PIE CRUST FOR 6 CRUSTS
This crust has never let me down no matter what the temp. or humidity in my kitchen. Keeps 3 weeks in frig so it's great to have around the holidys or in the summer when fresh fruit is available. I'm much more likely to throw a pie together if I know all I have to do for a crust is roll it out. Not much more work than a store bought crust but there's no comparison in the quality. Got this recipe from a dear friend's 94 year old mother. Her mother taught her to make crust this way when she was a girl so the recipe's been around a long time, although I'm sure it was made with lard back then and used immediately. This is one of my most prized recipes. Cook time is chill time.
