Single Pie Crust Recipe

1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons sugar or 2 teaspoons splenda sugar substitute
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup Smart Balance Vegetable Shortening
3 1/2 tablespoons ice water

1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar and salt. With a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal.

2. Sprinkle mixture with ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork until moist and crumbly. Transfer mixture onto lightly floured wax paper or plastic wrap; cover with additional plastic wrap. Roll dough, still covered, into a 12-inch circle.

3. Place in freezer for 5 minutes or until plastic wrap can be removed easily. Remove bottom sheet of plastic wrap and fit dough into 9-inch pie pan. Remove top sheet of plastic wrap. Fold under edges of crust and flute with fingers or fork.
Bake as pie recipe directs.
