Classic Single Pie Crust
This pie crust recipe makes the flakiest, most tender, single pie dough — perfectly sized for a single-crust, 8" to 10" pie. Use King Arthur Pastry Flour Blend for an extra tender texture, or all-purpose flour that's slightly sturdier. The combination of shortening and butter ensures that this pie dough holds its shape while baking but still had the delicious flavor of creamy, rich butter.
