This recipe is different from a traditional pie crust but it yields a rich and flavourful crust that can be used for both sweet and savoury pies. For pie filling ideas, try my fish pie filling recipe.

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

I wanted to make an American-style pie with a crispy, cookie-like crust, so I researched American pie recipes. I experimented with reducing the oil until I finally got a satisfying result!Quiche: 180℃ for 25~35 minutes.Apple pie: 220℃ for 15 minutes, then 170℃ for 45~50 minutes.Pumpkin pie: 220℃ for 10 minutes, then 170℃ for 40 minutes.The pie filling's baking temperature and time may also change, so always keep an eye on it.

Pie crusts are tough to get right–the secret is 3-2-1. 3 parts flour, two parts COLD fat, and 1 part ice water, plus spices to season. To get the desired golden, flaky texture, the crust must be kept cold until it goes in the oven.
