Pate Brisee (pie dough)

Ingredients:

 

2 1/2 cups AP flour
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp sugar
2 sticks chilled unsalted butter (cut into small pieces)
1/4 to 1/2 cup ice water

• Place the flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor and pulse until combined

• Add the butter and pulse in the food processor until the mixture looks like coarse meal (about 10 seconds)

• Continue pulsing and slowly add the water- a little at a time just until the dough comes together. Do not pulse longer than 30 seconds.

• Place the dough onto a floured work service and divide the dough into two sections. Once divided, flatten into round disks and place on a piece of wax paper and freeze for up to a week.

I hope you make this simple and wonderful pie dough- and share your feedback!

Happy cooking!
