Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup cold unsalted butter (cubed)
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup ice-cold water

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the cold butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. In a measuring jug, mix together apple cider vinegar and ice-cold water. Slowly pour this over the flour mixture while gently stirring until it forms a dough. Avoid overmixing.
  3. Shape the dough into two disks, wrap in foil, and chill in the fridge for about an hour.
  4. Roll out one disk between two sheets of parchment paper until it's slightly larger than your pie dish. Fit into the greased dish and chill again before filling.
