Perfect Homemade Pie Crust Recipe!!

[@jennynguyen5408]

Finally.. something that doesn’t have to mess with food processors, folding, cold butter, and water to put people in a tizzy. I’m saved!! Thank you 🙏

[@foughtpr]

Seriously, I’ve been in the same predicament in making pie crusts as others. My crusts always shrunk no matter how much I weighed them down and poked the heck out of them. I thought that the butter and cold water was the trick to good pie crust, so I just kept trying that-wasting a lot of expensive butter and the time that it took to refrigerate the dough, etc. I absolutely love this recipe. I just made it for the very first time, and it turned out perfect. No shrinkage at all. It looks as good as it did before I put it in to bake. I can’t believe it. Thank you so much for your tutorial. You have saved my sanity. I’d attach a picture if it were possible. Beautiful!

[@craigandanne85]

So glad to read this crust does not shrink! I absolutely hate making pie crust for this reason. However I’m going to give this one a go. I love his no muss approach. All that “the water must be freezing cold business “. Who knows, I may love making pies after all! 🤗

This is absolutely the best recipe and demo for pie crust anywhere. You can’t go wrong with Crouton Crackerjacks.

Great pie crust tutorial. I have been making pies for years and I do it your way. Plain and simple. No special tools or ingredients. Great Job Crouton Crackerjacks!!!!!

[@physiotherapistpaulina9340]

I love how clearly you describe everything, how you answer questions some of us are thinking of, and how inspiring you are by making it seem easy. Great teacher.

[@andilongmeadowfarm]

OMG. You are a champ. Someone (you!) somewhere making something practical and without a whole lot of fuss. Awesome, man! Thank you from The Longmeadow Farm.

[@asianwhiteguy3472]

I love this guy! No gimmicks or tricks. Just easy to follow instructions we simple people can understand.

[@darlenerothenay6251]

This was how my mom made hers as well. She used Fluffo shortening and her crust literally melted in the mouth. I have tried all the fancy chef crusts but am going back to this simpler, faster and foolproof methods. Those chefs might have the fancy degrees, but my mom had “the touch”!

[@pickledaisy]

This is my 3rd year coming back this video to refresh my memory on how to make the perfect pie crust. Seriously, this is the best tutorial/recipe I have found! Thank you so much for this video!!

[@MrDDBright]

Wow.. I found somebody who make it just like my grandma.. Thanks I been lookin for this... I forgot to buy the crust for my peach cobbler. Now for the first time in my life i am about to make my first homemade crust.... Thank you very much and Happy Thanksgiving Day 2015. ~ Chicago Father Single Parent

[@rosierojas3718]

Can I double this recipe and use it for chicken pot pie???????

[@shineb.9853]

This guy is the best teacher! Easy to follow his recipe. Thank you!

[@ozziemartz5481]

When I dock my pie crust and bake,I let the crust but when I add my filling and let it cool my crust is soggy. What can I do to prevent this?

[@plainjanekara6431]

This crust is amazing!!! I used it to make Apple Hand Pies. It is so flaky and it balances so well with sweet fillings. It's my new go to crust. Thank you so much for the video

[@reneecsutton]

Excellent tutorial. Clear and straight to the point. Bravo!

[@angelinthedark5]

Finally a pie crust recipe like the way my mom makes it. I used to get myself so stressed out because I just couldn't make pie crust, and my mom came over and said why are you so worried about cold butter and ice water and I showed her all the different recipes i printed off the computer and I said you have to do it this way. My mom laughed and said watch me, she made a pie crust in 5 minutes, just like this recipe! No more ice water and cold butter and most of all no more stress for me lol

[@sassygirl1151]

the different recipes are confusing

[@AndreSewellRS]

it's for the different typea of pastry. pate brisee, pate sucree, etc. Sometimes I can't bother either

[@niniitread8691]

angelinthedark5 Momma work it out❣

[@califdad4]

my Cousin used to make my pie crust for me, and she used crisco and flour , came out so nice and flaky, my guest used to tell me, she has to be using real butter, but she was just using Crisco and flour,. she used to also put it in her deep dish pyrex, and everyone loved my Quiche dinner parties

[@rolandfennell3870]

[@megharms9424]

I found this recipe in my HomeEc Class in 1964 and is the ONLY pie crust recipe I have ever used. Easy, tasty and perfect every time! My aunt told me to add pinch of baking powder for a flakier crust yet. Either way it is PERFECT EVERY TIME

[@amberisaacs9289]

I haven't been watching you long but I absolutely love how you are so descriptive such as adding the measurements and what it needs to look like. Another thing is how you add the recipes to the description below and add links that could help us get the same results as you

[@rogermurphy2914]

Excellent! I totally agree the fancy chefs make it complicated. You make it just like my grandmother and so simple and delicious!

[@vickithilges3497]

I’ve made pies for the Farmers market for 40 plus years. I’ve used this recipe or used butter. Same ratio of butter with all purpose flour. 1/3 cup butter or shortening, and 1 cup flour , little salt, ice water til forms a ball.

[@thebaldchef14]

I'm looking to make a homemade pie, and I came across this video. I have never made pie crust before so not only was his video very simple to follow but timely too. I never realized that it was such an easy feat to put together homemade pipe, crust. Thanks for the great information I shall be putting my education to use quite soon.

[@janiegoodman6301]

Thank you

[@avadehonduras]

Doing it now, for a pecan pie! Hope it works... thanks 😊

[@jmarcos1008]

I have used this recipe many times, always comes out perfect for me and I am not the best cook. Thank you 😊

[@zachariah-binyisrayl5570]

I have searched long and hard for a very SIMPLE, FLAKEY crust process......this is it !! My search is finally over. I'm using this TOMORROW to make my homemade CHICKEN POT PIE. Man...I'm so excited to use this crust recipe !!! Thanx SOOOOOOO MUCH for posting this. 👍

[@mizbutee]

Thank you Sir! I just finished making my first pie crust using your method and I LOVE IT!!!!!!!! Side note, I used crisco butter flavored shortening for that buttery taste. 👌🏽😋 New subscriber

[@calvinjackson8110]

Been looking at others who say their pie crust is the best and "easy" and easy it's not. They make such a long song and dance about butter, using ice cold water, frigerate the dough, letting it rest. By the time I make the crust I need a rest. They make it so complicated! You do not! THANK YOU FOR BRINGING IT DOWN TO EARTH!!!

[@jillgreen2012]

I have been looking for a pie crust recipe for a long time. Many of the other recipes failed, but yours was absolutely amazing. Thank you for posting. I have watched a lot of your recipe and they all look awesome. Can't wait to try them. Thanks again and have a great day.

[@PraytheRosaryEveryDay]

Thank you! This is the way my mother always made great pies! I fell for that "butter is better" thing and had so many failed crusts. Never again! Back to shortening for me. :) God bless!

[@mrsseasea]

I go back to this video every time . Thank you

[@MaegensKitchen]

I made a homemade pumpkin pie last week using this pie crust and it was DELICIOUS! It was my first time making a pie crust from scratch, but your video made it easy as PIE!

[@2NDFLB-CLERK]

▪️ Yea I just threw my pumpkin filling into one of these crusts... I think it should turn out okay. 🟥

[@blendi3825]

Finally bringing back what my grandmother used to do. No more relying in ready-made food. Thank you 😊

[@browning12]

This is I believe THE BEST PIE RECIPE ON YOU TUBE

[@LaPerledesAntilles1804]

This is the easiest, simplest, and most straightforward pie recipe I have ever seen! Thank you so much for teaching us this method! Making this pie dough recipe so doable and so not intimidating! Love it!

[@6862211]

This is my mother’s recipe to a T!! She always used iced water...I haven’t made it in years but I am now! Thanks! My mother in law always used lard....you just use a little less amount of lard in the this recipe to replace the crisco ....hers were delicious too!

[@mungbean345]

How fun. I've been gluten-free for two thirds of my life now due to food allergies, and I am craving pie. I wasn't satisfied with any of the other recipe videos I'd seen, but fortunately (I hope!) I clicked on yours just to reminisce, and it turns out that you use the exact same recipe and process as my grandmother. I'd totally forgotten the ratios because it has been so many years since I last made it. I'm going to give it a try now with cassava and sorghum flour! 🤞 Thanks!

[@wildheart5]

This is exactly how I have made pie crust for many, many years. Always a winner. You did a beautiful job! xo

[@croutoncrackerjacks]

wildheart5 Thanks Barb! I agree, always a winner!

[@still_becoming]

Thank you for being so explicit and simple at the same time

[@briannaesparza6657]

I love that these recipes don’t use any machines! I don’t have a mixer and always wondered if using my hands had any disadvantages. But I also wondered what people would do before the popularity of mixers. Thanks for sharing!

[@loveartscraft2004]

your crust looks perfect, and the way you explain it, makes it super simple. im going to foloow your recipe.

[@phillipsisters990]

Easiest pie crust I've tried thanks a million.

[@sallywalsh2694]

Can I use sesame oil

[@learningmore727]

I just made my first pie crust thanks to you showing me how easy it is. It took no time at all! I'll always make my own pie crust from now on.

[@verashular7378]

This is the best pie crust I have ever made. I will use this from now on and pass it down to my family. Excellent. I would give it 5 stars plus.

[@dabbiana1999]

This is absolutely a good demonstrator. He listed what is missing with other channel.... bake the first crust first before filling.

[@mundanethings208]

Ive never tried making crust using anything but butter, but then i followed your recipe and holy hell! It’s so crumbly and flakey! Thank you so much 🤤 never using butter for crust anymore

[@5GreenAcres]

I would never ever use Crisco for pie crust. Soybean oil is the main ingredient. You are better off using lard which is animal fat.

[@mundanethings208]

@@5GreenAcres im muslim i cant consume pork. Crisco is a great alternative

[@5GreenAcres]

@@mundanethings208 Then use butter. I just made mine with butter today and it turned out fantastically delicious. I made chicken pot pies.

[@timpope1221]

Awesome video , I'm getting ready to make my 1st pie crust for my home grown apple pie that I have made several times before but with premade piecrust , Thanks for taking the time to make this video !

[@shemab2639]

I tried this recipe about two months ago. It was my first pie and I was nervous. The crust was soooooo flakey and soft. I'm gonna make a pumpkin pie soon, think I'll add a pinch of salt and a little sugar this time around. Thanks 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@danielcartwright171]

Simple,... CONCISE explanation. You even included ingred. in description! Good vid sir.

[@almapadilla7966]

This is amazing. Simple but precise n well explained. Ty i will try this tomorrow

[@teresah7886]

It is amazing how simple it is to make pie crusts. I use to use shortening and have switched over to lard. The lard gives it a bit of a salty taste. I try not to tell my company they are eating lard, unless the are vegetarians of one sort or the other. Don't see where it will hurt you too much as long as you don't eat pie every day. This is the way my grand parents did it, and they lived well into their 80's and 90's. Great video. God Bless and take care.

[@Evy42]

I’ve done plenty of pie crust but for some reason this is the best version, on point. Will be the only crust for me from now on 👍🏼 thanks

[@jimthompson606]

I love how you simplify everything.

[@SNL19067]

Excellent recipe...thank you for taking the time to make the video and post it! This is so easy and quick to make and it is delicious and flaky, too. It took me a few tries to get it right because I was making it too dry and it was splitting apart on me. By adding a little more water, I got the right consistency and the dough held together beautifully. Next I'll work on making the edge look nice but at least I have a great crust recipe to start with! Thanks again.

[@terri-youtube]

A DUDE who KNOWS HOW TO COOK!~~~ GREAT JOB....thanks for the vid!~~~

[@bethwall]

Oh you are so wise, I never thought about using the rolling pin to bring the dough up and into the pan. Thanks, I always mess this part up getting it off the board and onto the pan and then the edge.

[@PowerOfLoveTarot]

Wow....Really? Are you aware we now have Electricity, internet and Trump is a president?. You never thought of something, what people have been doing for several hundred years?

Omg thank you so much!! It's my first time to make a pie crust and i nailed it right away... very easy... i made an egg pie and it was perfect!!! Salamat

[@dietrevich]

Very good video and recipe. One thing though the butter crust I've made I wouldn't describe as having a minimal butter taste. The difference between a shortening and butter crust are heaven and earth apart.

[@msnat61]

LOL..LOVE IT! The way I used to make pie crusts for my Dad’s pies as a teenager. Old school...uncomplicated...and PERFECT! Thanks for sharing 🥧🥧🥧

[@nildabridgeman3739]

You know how MANY YEARS I been screwing up pie crusts? Either too dry & crumbly with the butter or just so time consuming in my attempt not to screw it up. This was so easy, I'm gonna give yours a try this year! Thankyou👍

[@davidogan]

Hello Crouton. Just tried your pie crust recipe. Followed your instructions. It was rather easy like you said it would be. Came out beautifully. Thank you so very much. This will now be my go to piecrust from now on!

Aww thanks! My question was can I double the recipe and use this for pot pie 🥧 🙌🏼👍🏼

[@patfrontuto5342]

This is awesome! No blind baking, nothing! Awesome!

[@ninablanco2645]

These instructions are really simple!! I was always intimidated to bake pies because other chefs have too many steps and make it complicated. I will bake my own pie for Thanksgiving!! Thank you! I will use filter water and lard!!

[@berri5769]

This is my new crust recipe! I used to use frozen pillsbury crust, then I changed to Trader Joe’s pie crust. Both of these crusts were rolled up and I had to unroll them, it would be hard to make edges. This crust so easy to make, have used it for chicken pot pie and custard pie. It’s super great

[@jenmilla609]

I usually use butter for my crust, but I needed to bake a dairy free pie for a party. I tried to make one and the dough fell apart. I was so frustrated. Found this and immediately made it, absolutely perfect! So simple, my 4 year old even helped.

[@donnavoltz9835]

Just love this video. It has helped me so much. I have struggled and flopped so many times giving in and buying factory made pie crust. This video made it so simple. I just put my 4 th pie n the oven. Homemade crust. Amazing I can do it.

[@Tossie1425]

I finally found the simplest pie crust. Thank you I did make this but it look a litter dryer after baking it because maybe I didn't put an egg white on top. Other than that I will keep trying and the pie came out delicious.

[@tempestjones7445]

I made this crust, but tweaked it a little and it came out amazing. I used butter instead of shortening, added sugar and egg, and let the dough chill before I used it since I used butter.

[@عبدالرحمنالزميلي-ت2ظ]

If i were you i would add spoons of milk to the dough instead of water ; milk will give the crust a better taste But your way it is still a good job Thanks a lot for your show

[@makedaanderson5399]

Will give this a try too.. My aunt always tend to add milk in every recipe of things where it says to add water ..Thank you for your input

[@NansGlobalKitchen]

Wow did not know that. I will this with milk as well!

Beautiful crust! Thank you for sharing! I made a chicken pot pie, and a peach pie. The crust turned out perfect! The only thing I did differently was I used butter flavored crisco, and I doubled the recipe, because I like a thicker crust.

[@sassiebrat]

These are the ingredients my mother used (she was born in '21). Hers was the best pie crust I have ever eaten, flaky and delicious, lots of flavor! She was raised on a farm where her Aunt Iva made most everything from scratch. Mom may have used lard at one time but never when I was around, always Crisco. She didn't refrig hers either.

[@hannahhiller9273]

You are some kind of magician. I have tried and failed pastry so may times, worrying about having cold shortening and ice water and chilling the dough. I think the dough could sense my fear, it always turned out wrong! This has completely changed my persepective, I can't wait to give it a try! Best of all, it's vegan!

[@Stephanie-id7ut]

Perfect! I personally think my pie crust come out way better when using shortening instead of butter and now I use Butter flavored Shortening and crust have the flakiness and buttery taste😊.....Great Video!

[@davidguith1206]

Great, simple presentation and preperation!!

[@nameofthepen]

The classic original pie crust resurrected! I remember my grandmother making this. After the crust was in the dish, she'd gather the scraps, press them into a ball, roll it out, slather a bit of butter over the circle, and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Then she'd roll it up, slice into 3/4" rounds, place them on a piece of tinfoil, and pop them in the oven with the baking pie shell. Yum!

[@wendybeauchamp72]

This is a great pie crust and it works well with the pot pie recipe. family devoured it, thanks :)
