Favorite Pie Crust

Best Ever Crust

Sift together
1 1/4 Cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt

cut in  1/3 cup of lard
until mixture is in pea size pieces (I use a fork for this)

Start adding ice water 1 TBSP at a time tossing flour mixture with a fork pushing moisened dough to the side of your bowl until all the dough has been moistened.

This should take 3 -5 TBSP of water.
form dough into a ball and roll out on a floured surface.
Will make a 12 crust.

*Try using this dough for pot pies it is wonderful
* Using lard will make the crust flaky

I made this pumpkin bread yesterday it was very good, so I thought I would share.

Sift together in a large bowl:
3 1/2 cups All purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
3 tsp cinnamon
1tsp nutmeg
1 tsp salt

Set aside

Mix together:

3 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup softened margarine
2 eggs
1/2 cup apple butter or apple sauce
1 small can pumpkin

Add flour mixture slowly, alternating with 1/2 cup of water just until mixed.
Pour into 2 greased 9x5 loaf pans and bake in a preheated 350* oven for 60 to 70 minutes.

I topped it with a simple cream cheese icing, but it would be good plain or with whipped cream.

Let me know what you think.
