INGREDIENTS

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 🌾 4 cups all-purpose flour
    • 🧂 2 teaspoons salt
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • Wet Ingredients

    • 1 ⅔ cups lard
    • 💧 ½ cup water
    • 🥚 1 large egg, beaten
    • 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar

STEPS

1

Mix flour, salt, and baking powder together in a bowl. Cut in lard until the mixture resembles coarse meal.

2

Whisk water, egg, and vinegar together in another bowl; add to dry ingredients and stir until dough is thoroughly moistened and forms a ball.

3

Divide dough into fourths; roll each portion into a ball and flatten into a disk.

4

If using immediately, roll each disk on a lightly floured surface to fit your pie pan, then bake as directed in your recipe.

5

If using later, wrap each disk tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for up to three days, or place wrapped disks in a freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
