This recipe is by Christy Jones (found it online).
It's really easy to make and I've used it at least five times now. It makes a flaky crust rather than a thick moist one. If I have extra dough from the recipe and I'm making a pie that calls for it (like apple) I crumble the dough on top. I wouldn't use this recipe for the top and bottom of a pie - too flaky.
Ingredients:
* 1 cup flour
* 1/3 cup non-dairy margarine (preferably non-hydrogenated)
* 3 Tablespoons water
1. Pour the flour into a medium bowl.
2. Cut the margarine into the flour using two dinner knives or forks, until all the margarine is small, flour-coated chunks.
3. Add the water to the flour and mix thoroughly, forming a ball of dough.
4. Spray a pie pan with non-stick cooking spray, or coat it lightly with margarine.
5. Roll out the dough into a circle and place it in the pie pan, or simply press the dough into the pie pan. Make sure the crust is an even thickness throughout, and covers the entire pan.
