Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a food processor, combine flour, coconut oil, and salt. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (2 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

Add 5 tablespoons of ice-cold water and pulse again. With the processor running on low, gradually add additional water, one tablespoon at a time, until a dough begins to form. Be careful not to over-process. (3 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Gently pat the dough into a ball using your hands. Divide the dough in half to create two pie crusts. (2 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Lightly flour a work surface and rolling pin. Roll out the dough to your desired thickness. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Transfer the crust to your pie dish and crimp the edges as desired. Bake according to your pie recipe's instructions.

For the most neutral flavor, be sure to use refined coconut oil. If you're a coconut lover, unrefined oil adds a delightful hint of tropical essence.
If the dough feels too dry, add more water, a teaspoon at a time. If it feels too sticky, add a little more flour.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out for easier handling.
For a golden-brown crust, brush with milk or an egg wash before baking.

    I added a touch of lemon zest to the dough for a savory pie, and it was fantastic!
