How to Make Flaky Pie Crust


I cannot believe that it has been three years since I made my first blog post and posted my first recipe!  Some very exciting things have happened over the last year, the most exciting of which was being contacted by Food.com and asked to freelance food write for them!  You mean get paid to do what I love?!  Sign me up!  This post on how to make a pie crust was actually one of the assignments that I did for them.  

I had a hard time figuring out what I wanted to make for my 3-year blogiversary.  I also have been away celebrating my 9-year wedding anniversary and haven't had much time to plan for it.  For my one-year blogiversary, I made a 3-tier cake, which turned out to be humble pie.  On my two-year blogiversary, I celebrated with cotton candy cocktails.  Since today happens to be national cherry pie day, I thought I would stick with that theme and share one of my Food.com assignments, how to make a pie crust.  

Making your own pie crust is easy and involves ingredients that you most likely have lying around your house already.  The key to a flaky pie crust is very cold butter.  Once you have purposed to make your own pie crust from scratch, the very first thing you should do, even before reading through the directions, is place your butter in the freezer.  These instructions will help you achieve a perfectly delicious and flaky pie crust.
