No Roll Sweet Crust
- Ready In:
- 20mins
- Ingredients:
- 4
- Yields:
-
8 Individual size tarts or 1 pie crust
- Serves:
- 8
ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 1⁄2 cup sugar
- 1⁄2 cup salted butter, room temperature
- 1⁄4 cup canola oil
directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
- Add dry ingredients to a large bowl.
- Add the butter and using a fork or butter knife cut it in a bit to make the butter into bits the size of sugar cubes. This seems to help the butter distribute better once the oil is added.
- Then add the oil.
- With your hand (or hands) rub the butter and oil into the flour/sugar. When you're done there will be no dry flour remaining and you'll be able to form a ball.
- Press the pastry into a pie plate or tart forms.
- Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent the crust from forming bubbles and place in a 350 degree fahrenheit oven. Cooking times will vary, but expect 15 to 20 minutes for a light crust.
- Note: This has only been used for Lemon Tarts and Cook & Serve Pudding fillings. I have not used it for longer cooking fillings and don't know how it would fare for things like Pumpkin Pie, etc.
