My Simple Pie Crust
This is the recipe I've been using as a pie crust since I was a child.
I adjusted it to make it even crispier.
Be careful not to let the butter melt in Steps 2 and 3.
In Step 6, work the dough quickly to keep it from becoming too soft.
If it becomes too soft, chill in the refrigerator or freezer. Recipe by weeeek39

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Sift together the bread flour and cake flour. Cut the butter into 2 cm cubes and keep chilled.
- 2
Add butter to the sifted flour, and using a dough scraper, cut the butter while mixing into the flour, until the butter forms bean-sized lumps.
- 3
Add chilled water to the dough from Step 2, mix with a spatula, then use your hands to bring it together. The key is not to knead it, leaving the dots of butter intact.
- 4
Form the dough into a 10 cm x 15 cm rectangle, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour or more in the refrigerator. When baking pies, it's easier if you prepare the dough a day in advance.
- 5
Dust your working surface with flour, then roll out the dough to 1 cm thick, then fold into thirds, bringing the sides into the center.
- 6
Rotate the dough 90º, then repeat Step 5, 5 times--making a total of six repeated rolling steps.
- 7
Now, it's ready to use! The once crumbly dough is now nice and smooth.
- 8
To make puff pastry If you roll out the dough to 5 mm thick, then freeze them, you'll have a nice stock of puff pastry!
- 9
For apple pies, bake for a total of 40 minutes: 20 minutes at 200°C, then for 20 more minutes at 180°C.

Easy and Authentic Crispy Pie Crust Easy and Authentic Crispy Pie Crust
I wanted a crispy crust for my apple pie.The batter will get runny and hard to handle if the butter melts, so make sure your room is cool enough or make it during one of the colder months.Try not to touch the crust too much before baking, or it'll melt with the warmth of your heads.Freeze the pie crust before baking to save it for later.

A Baker's Pie Crust A Baker's Pie Crust
The pie crust recipe in a cookbook I had was too sticky and hard to work, so I adapted it using a crispy biscuit recipe that I had. I used 300 g of medium-strength or all-purpose flour this time. I tried various ratios of flours, but this recipe worked well with all cake flour or 100 g of bread flour + 200 g of cake flour too. I love how this pie stays crispy even the next day. There's no need to fold the crust, plus you only need one bowl.The cream cheese and butter blend better if you work them with your hands, but they do melt with your body temperature. If you use a fork, they blend better with the flour and your hands don't get messy. If you knead it or the cream cheese and butter melt while you're making the crust, the layers won't form properly, so it's best to chill the cream cheese and butter very well beforehand, and to make a crumbly crust quickly. Chilled ingredients will result in the nicest crust when baked. This recipe yields around 8 to 10 mini-pies about the size of your palm, or one double pie crust. If you only need the bottom crust for a pie, use half the listed amounts. Recipe by Koharumama
