-
Cut the butter into cubes and place the cubes into a bowl. Stick the bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes, to allow the butter to firm up.
-
Measure the flour, sugar and salt, and dump them into the food processor, fitted with the cutting blade. Pulse it a few times to combine the ingredients.
-
Add the cold cubed butter into the food processor. Pulse the mixture 2-3 times to cut up the butter slightly.
-
Add 6 tablespoons of cold water into the food processor and pulse 4-5 times. Check the consistency of the dough, and if needed, add 1 tablespoon at a time and pulse, just until the dough gets very crumbly. You'll know it's ready when you can grab a chunk of the dough and squeeze it together.
-
Remove the blade from the food processor bowl, and dump the crumbly dough onto a clean surface. Smush the crumbly dough together to form a ball.
-
Cut the dough in half to form 2 pie crusts, and shape them into discs.
-
Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour before rolling out, or for longer storage, wrap the dough discs in plastic wrap, place into freezer bags and freeze until needed.
