1 egg
1Tbsp vinager 
water

momma I want to help!

DIRECTIONS:

Mix together:
5 cups flour
2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder

I'll just play with this instead.
Add 2 1/2 cups shortning. Mix well until crumbly



Mix 1 egg, 1Tbsp vinager in a 1 cup measuring, fill rest of cup with water.
Add to flour mixture. Mix well



This will be sticky, make into five balls and roll out on floured surface or wrap in suran wrap and refrig. or freeze.  I place the wrapped balls in a freezer bag for extra protection.

Enjoy this delish pie crust. This recipe bakes nice and flaky. It makes 5 crusts.
