MOM'S OIL CRUST PIE SHELL
My mom's favorite pie cookbook is the old Farm Journal's "Complete Pie Cookbook" from 1965... and her copy is well-used and loved, full of clippings and hand-written notes. This recipe is based on the one from there, with modifications to her taste. It works really well for all sorts of pies, especially her Quiche Lorraine (see my other recipes) and pumpkin. Simple and flaky! Makes one 9-inch pie shell with a little left over... Mom takes the leftover and makes it into little snack crackers. :) My sister claims she doesn't like oil crust, but she never knows the difference when Mom uses them in her pies.

Steps:
- Sift the flour and salt into a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine the oil and water (and milk, if using 2 Tbsp water and 2 Tbsp milk).
- Pour liquid mixture all at once into the sifted mixture, and then - with your hands - press the dough into a smooth ball. Be careful not to overwork the dough or it can become tough; it will be somewhat crumbly and soft.
- To use, press the dough into the pie shell and shape the edges into flutes with your fingers. If there are thin spots, the dough is soft enough to easily to press extra into them with no worries.
- Note: use any left over pieces of dough by baking them into little snack crackers. This dough freezes and thaws really well!

Steps:
- Sift the flour twice, then whisk in the salt and create a little well.
- Pour in the oil, then milk and stir everything together. If the dough seems too dry, add 1-2 tbsp of milk.
- Once the dough starts to form, finish working it by gently kneading it on a sheet of wax paper.
- Divide into two parts. Roll the dough out in between 2 sheets of wax paper. Remove the top sheet of wax paper. Use the bottom sheet to lift and flip the dough onto the pie plate and on top of the filling.
- Trim and seal edges. Cut some slits for ventilation.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 425F for 15 minutes, then bake at 375F until the crust is golden and filling is cooked. Usually about another 30-45 minutes.

Steps:
- Combine flour and salt in a medium mixing bowl. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the oil and 5 tablespoons of ice cold water; don't mix the liquids together.
- Add liquids to the flour and salt mixture. Stir with a fork until a ball forms; add 1 tablespoon of ice water if it is very crumbly and not holding. It is okay if the dough is not totally cohesive (some crumbles may exist).
- Divide the dough into two equally sized balls. Place in an airtight container and let rest in the fridge for at least 15 minutes.
- For one pie crust, place the dough ball between two pieces of wax paper. Use a rolling pin (I recommend using a marble one like this) to roll out until it reaches 12 inches in diameter.
- Carefully peel the top layer off of the wax paper. Invert the pie crust into a pie plate and carefully peel the wax paper off of the dough.
- Bake the pie dough according to pie recipe.

MOM'S OIL CRUST
My Mom made this growing up with both sweet and savory pies. I still make this crust today because I don't have to roll anything out or try to make the butter pea-sized. She uses whole-wheat flour or sometimes half white and half wheat while I generally will use whole-wheat flour when making crust for pot pie and white flour when making pie crust. I have tried doubling this recipe when making a 2-crust pie, but I find it works better to make the first crust right in the pie plate and the second pie crust in a bowl. The second pie crust does get rolled out, but this dough is not as picky as crusts made with butter or shortening. Try it when you're in a pinch for a pie crust. You'll be surprised with the ease and simplicity of the recipe. Serving size is approximate.
