Now see, that’s the kind of crust I will eat. 

😁 I make apple pie once each year; and only for Christmas. I think last year I used a Joy Of Cooking recipe for the crust. So now I can compare that recipe to this year's, from Ina Garten, and see which one works well for me. Wish me luck, please! 

What I remember from my grandmother is cold butter and fold 17 times. Don’t overwork it. She died when I was 9. 

Sounds yummy to me! 

She’s a beaut! 

Growing up my mom and grandmother always made their pie crusts. I think I was 35+ when I realized you could actually buy Pillsbury pie crusts rolled up in the store. Enjoy ! 

Kat, I wondered about overworking the dough! Thank you! I learned to cook from cookbooks and so sometimes I forget to read the general tips. But, in part, because I was the very first grandchild on my father's side, I had a lot of time with her. My grandma only recently moved on to a better place. She was one of the most important people in my world. Sending 💙 to your grandma.  

Diana and Moko, thank you! 

honeebuns, ha! My youngest loves the Pilsbury crescent rolls and will ask for them every single time I make pasta for dinner.  

As a little girl I remember watching my mom dozens of times making perfect pie crusts using Crisco. I wished she would have let me try to make them because the one time I tried it was a dismal failure. Way to tough, probably over working the dough. 

Looks good! 

Fritzy 22, I've struggled with pie dough as well. It has become easier over time. One issue is that I don't often practice. Yet, this too is by design; because the more pies I make, the more pie I eat. Soooo there you go... I realized that my first attempt at pie crust was based on an ATK recipe, which was very good.
