This one satisfying swap will take your pie crust from savory to strikingly succulent. Instead of a traditional pie crust, create an all-butter crust for a delectable apple pie.
Butter prioritizes flavor while shortening is known for its high smoke point. Switch to all-butter for a flavorful crust instead of a traditional butter and shortening crust.
Combining butter and flour in pie crusts creates a dough-like consistency, and using a food processor with the pulse setting can help achieve the best results.
Use a spatula to mix water into the crust, and allow it to reach room temperature after baking to result in a flaky, tender crust for a delicious apple pie.
