Aunt Judith's Whole Wheat Pie Crust

 This recipe makes enough for 2 - 3 single pie crusts.

1.  Sift together: 
  • 3 C regular flour
  • 1/2 C whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp salt
2.  Cut in:
  • 1+1/4 C shortening
  • 1/4 C butter (half cube)
3.  Whip together in a bowl:
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp vinegar
  • 5-6 Tbl ice water
4.  Do not chill the dough before rolling out into a round pie shell (but you can freeze remaining dough.)

5.  If baking the shell, use a fork to gently poke holes on the sides and bottom of shell.  Bake at 425 degrees for 8 - 10 minutes.
