EASY No-Roll Pie Crust

• 3 cups flour

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 2 teaspoons sugar

• 2/3 cup cooking oil (I like to use Canola oil)

• 1/3 cup water or milk

Measure all ingredients into a mixing bowl and stir with a fork. Pat into pie pan with fingers or use the back of a spoon. Use with your favorite pie recipes.

This recipe will make enough for:

• 3 eight-inch one-crust pies (or)

• 2 eight-inch two-crust pies (or)

• 2 ten-inch one-crust pies (or)

• 1 ten-inch two-crust pie with a generous crumble crust.

To make the crumble crust, use half of the mixture for the bottom crust and then add 1/4 cup brown sugar to the remainder and sprinkle on top of your pie filling.

For a baked pie shell, bake the crust at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until light brown.
