Homemade pie crust

Last week I decided my sweet daughter and I would bake a pie. Ok, so she's only 13 months so I did most of the baking. But she got to watch and her Daddy sure appreciated our efforts when he got home.
I am guilty of buying the pre-made, refrigerated pie crusts from the grocery store because "they save so much time", or so I thought! After making this pie-crust myself I don't know that I'll ever buy those again! This crust was absolutely delicious and I knew exactly what ingredients had gone into it.  Plus-it truly was quick and easy to prepare. I hope you'll give this a try for your next dessert or chicken pot pie!

Homemade pie crust (yields one 8 or 9-inch pie crust)

Ingredients:
1 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter
2 to 3 tablespoons cold water

Directions:
In a mixing bowl stir flour and salt together.  Cut in butter with a fork for about a minute or until pieces resemble small peas.  Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the cold water over half of the mixture and gently toss with a fork until moistened.  Sprinkle another tablespoon cold water over the additional mixture and toss with a fork until moistened as well.  Make sure all flour is moistened but don't overwork the mixture!

Using your hands, quickly form the dough into a ball.  Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes (or up to 3 days!).  Then, follow your recipes directions for baking. 

*Most pie recipes will state that you need a 9-inch unbaked pie shell.
What will you fill this delicious pie crust with? I'd love to hear!
 Happy eating!
