INGREDIENTS

  • Dry Ingredients

    • ¾ cup all-purpose flour

  • Fat

    • 🧈 6 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces

  • Cheese

    • 🧀 ¼ cup shredded Cheddar cheese

  • Liquid

    • 💧 5 teaspoons cold water

STEPS

1

Gather all ingredients.

2

Place flour in a large bowl. Sprinkle in butter; rub butter into flour until it resembles bread crumbs. Stir in cheese.

3

Sprinkle cold water over flour mixture, a teaspoon at a time, stirring lightly with a fork. Add just enough water to allow dough to form a ball and cleanly leave the sides of the bowl.

4

Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

5

Roll out dough and place in a 9-inch pie or quiche pan. Use a fork to prick holes over the bottom of the pastry.

6

Bake crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes before filling with quiche filling of your choice.
