1
For the Pastry:
2
Add the 2 1/2 cups flour, the sugar, and salt into a food processor. Give it a few pulses.
3
Cut COLD butter into tbsp size pieces. Transfer to food processor and pulse until the butter is cut into small lentil-sized clumps.
4
Slowly drizzle in about 1/4 cup of the ice water while pulsing processor. If the mixture doesn't hold together when you squeezer a clump in your hand then add a bit more water and pulse.
5
Transfer dough onto a pastry mat or sheet of plastic wrap and knead 2-3 times just to help it come together a bit. Gently flatten into a one inch-thick disk, and cover in plastic wrap and chill for an hour.
6
Once your pie crust is chilled, preheat oven to 425F and remove the dough from fridge and let it warm up on the counter for a few minutes, this will prevent cracking. Roll our pie crust to about 1/4 of an inch and transfer to a baking sheet.
