Ingredients
3 cups flour
1 cup Crisco
12 tablespoons ice water
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
Preparation
Mix dry ingredients. Cut in Crisco with Pastry blender. Combine iced water, egg, and vinegar; add this to flour mixture. Stir only until combined. Wrap with film until ready to use.
To make pies: Cut circles the desired size. Put filling on one half of the circle, no closer than 1.5 inches from the edge. Using a pastry brush, put water around the outside edges; fold pastry over and seal with fingers. Cook in hot oil.
