I have never been good at making a homemade pie crust. I have tried several recipes and it has always been an epic failure. I found this recipe on another blog site (www.picky-palate.com) and it got great reviews. I decided to try one more time to make my own pie crust. I am so glad I tried it as it turned out fantastic. I will never buy another frozen pre-made pie crust again. This was simple and it made the most delicious buttery pie crust which can be used for both sweet and savory pies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
