How to make the perfect pie crust

After so many years of rolling out dough to make an oven bake pie crust, I stumbled across this recipe in my husband’s family recipe book.

It is easy, quick, tasty and will make any homemade pie taste like a store bought product.

This recipe makes enough dough for one medium sized pie.
