    • Reviews

  • “Easy to make and light and somewhat flaky.I just think that the shortening is a little lacking in flavor and burned a little too easily.Next time I might try half butter and half shortening.”

  • “I am sorry to say I did not have a good experience with this crust. I lost my grandmother’s recipe and hoped this would be a good substituted but was terribly disappointed. The crust was easy to work with however it did not taste good, it was way to lardy (I used it for an apple pie),and my guests did not care for it either. I tried it a second time using less lard (1 cup as opposed to the 1 1/2) and an extra cup of flour (4 cups as opposed to the 3 cups in this recipe) and it had a far better texture and the flavor was somewhat improved, but this recipe as it is stated prior to my adjustments was really bad.Next time I think I might do half lard and half butter, and add a little sugar to the recipe if I am making a fruit pie and we will see how that turns out.”

  • “this was the best crust i have ever made. was so pleased with it because i am not good at homemade pie crust and this one was a breeze!”

  • “I am a complete novice at baking. this was my first pie ever and i totally succeeded! Thank you so much! The crust was amazing! So easy to work with. I took the two extra balls and froze them to use another day and absolutely no problems! I did dowhat someone suggested and used half shorting half margarine and it worked like a dream. Thank you!”

  • “This is a recipe that my Mother had. It’s the best I’ve ever used but we always used Imperial margarine instead of crisco.I think the margarine is better tasting.It’s a crust that so easy to work with as its doesn’t fall apart easily but still remaoins tender when baked.”
