Ingredients

    .5 Cup of Shortening
    1.5 cup All Purpose Flour
    .5 tsp of salt
    .5 cup cold water

Directions

Mix Shortening, flour and salt together with a pastry blender until crumbly.
Add as much water as needed to hold together, and mix lightly with a fork. (Add it one tbsp at a time).

Roll gently, one crust at a time, on a floured pastry cloth, to about an inch larger than pie plate.
Fold carefully in half. Lift to pie plate, and unfold. Fit into pan. For a single-crust pie, trim with a small knife to about 1/2 inch beyond rim. Fold up, and pinch so edge of pie is raised from rim. For a two-crust pie, trim bottom crust to edge of rim, fill, and top with crust about 1/2 inch larger than rim. Tuck top crust under bottom along rim. Seal with floured fork.
