Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Whisk the flour and salt together in a bowl. With a pastry cutter, cut the shortening and butter into the flour until the chunks are the size of small peas. Stir in buttermilk and vegetable oil with a fork until the dough is moistened and beginning to gather together. Form the dough into a compact shape.
- Divide the dough in half, and shape each half into a ball. Roll out each pie crust between 2 sheets of parchment paper.
Footnotes
- Cook's Notes
- I try to keep the ingredients cold and not handle them too much with my warm hands.
- After I roll a ball out between parchment paper, I like to stick it in the freezer for a few minutes to chill. It makes it easier for me to peel off the parchment paper.
- If you are pre-baking your pie crust, prick the bottom and sides thoroughly with a fork, and bake at 475 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Partner Tip
- Reynolds® parchment can be used for easier cleanup/removal from the pan.

I followed the recipe exactly as stated. I don't think this is the best pie crust but it's a good one. The oil makes it a little sticky to roll out. I will eliminate this next time. Also wil...

I have never made my own pie crust and decided to make it for my chicken pot pie. The recipe itself was easy. I used 1/2 cup of butter and no shortening because I didnt have it. My crust turned ...
Not surpising considering the ingredients, the flavor of this crust was very reminiscent of biscuits to me. It was very tender, but I should have held back a bit of the buttermilk...the dough ...
