Pie Dough (Pâte Brisée II) from Joanne Chang, using the KitchenAid Pastry Beater

Pâte Brisée II (Pie Dough) recipe can be found in Joanne Chang’s amazing cookbook, Flour. I am also using the KitchenAid Pastry Beater attachment for the first time in this video. My first impression is that it does a good job incorporating butter into the flour (which is what it was designed to do). But I didn’t like it as well after I added liquid. The dough clumped up on the beater and did not incorporate as easily.
This video shows the preparation of the dough itself, as well as lining the pie dish. In my next video, I will use this pie shell to make the Super-Pumpkiny Pumpkin Pie recipe, from the same cookbook.

Thank you for this video! I wanted to see how this attachment works because I have physical limitations with my dominant arm that make pastry dough a challenge - I need help to work the butter in. Looks like this attachment is worth a try for me. Thanks again 😊
