Pie crust that is easy to make and tastes amazing.

The smell of freshly baked pie crust filling the house always made my stomach growl. My mom was an amazing baker, and she always made the crusts from scratch. Even now, I can still smell the sweet, buttery aroma as I write this. It was a tradition in our household to have homemade pie crust on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and birthdays. My mom was always so proud of her pie crusts, and she would often make them a day or two in advance so they would have time to cool and firm up.

I always loved to watch her as she worked, meticulously measuring out the ingredients and folding them together until the dough was smooth and shiny. Even after years of making pie crusts by myself, I still can’t Resist a good tutorial from my mom.

No matter how many times I make pie crust, there is always something magical about the first time I make it from scratch. It’s a rite of passage that I hope to pass down to my own children one day. Though I may never be able to replicate my mom’s pie crust recipe perfectly, I’m happy to know that I can still create pies that are just as delicious.
