Pie Crust
This is an excellent pie crust. It is light, flaky, delicious, and pretty easy to make. It's not super healthy, but trans-fat free crisco helps.

Units
Amount
| 1 cup | cold water |
| 1 pound | crisco or butter |
| 1 | egg |
| 5 cup | flour |
| 1 tablespoon | salt |
| 2 tablespoon | white vinegar |
Directions
- Mix flour, crisco, and salt together, until it looks like small peas.
- Put the vinegar and egg in a measuring cup, and full to 1 cup with water (so there's actually just less than 1 cup of water).
- Pour the vinegar/egg/water mix into the flour and mix thoroughly (while being careful not to overwork it)
- Roll out the dough fairly thin, and put in a pie plate. This pie crust can then be used with a variety of fillings.
