- 1 1/4 cup flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp sugar
- 1 stick butter cut into cubes
- 3-4 tbsp ice water
Directions:
Pulse the flour sugar and salt together in a food processor a few times to combine.
Add butter and pulse until it resembles a crumble.
Add 2 tablespoons ice water to start, and pulse. Add 1 tablespoon at a time as needed from there. Pulsing after each addition. I usually add 4 tablespoons and that cuts it. We want the dough to almost fully combine into one ball.
Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour. Can be left in overnight if necessary, until ready for use.
When time to roll out dough, keep the surface lightly floured and flip the crust after a couple rolls and be sure to sprinkle a little flour then too. This will keep it from sticking.
