NOTES:

Pie crust is always a challenge. Saucy’s normal crust uses lard, but then he had to make a pie for a vegan so he tried shortening. And failed. he just can’t get shortening to work. So he remembered Carmen talking about her oil pie crust, so he found a recipe and gave it a try. This is now his favorite way to make pie crust!

This recipe will Yield about enough dough for a 9-10 double pie crust.
