Mary - Wheat Germ Pie Crust

[Guest guest]

Mary,So it took so long to send Wheat Germ Pie Crust recipe to you. I use this

for my Vegetarian Pot Pie and for fruit pies, etc. It is so easy and quick to

make. All of the Pie Crust Recipes are in the Dessert Recipes in a subfolder,

" Pie Crust " then click on Crusts. There are so really good ones in there.

Enjoy,Judy --------Wheat Germ Pie Crust

2 c. pastry flour or unbleached white flour

1/4 c. wheat germ

1 t. salt

1/2 c. vegetable oil

1/2 c. boiling water

 

Mix salt and flour. Pour water and oil in all at once. Stir with a fork.

Roll between two pieces of wax paper. Remove top paper. Lay crust side

across the pie dish. Remove top

wax paper. There should be enough dough for a double pie crust or top layer

crust. Flute edges. Moisten fluted edges so crust will not shrink in

oven. Prick pastry to prevent puffing while baking.

 

Bake in hot oven, 425-450 degrees F. for 20 minutes or until nicely browned.

 

***If you don't have Wheat Germ you can just add 1/4 extra flour, but the Wheat

Germ add a really nice flavor.
