Canola Oil Shortcrust
Ingredients
- 2 cups (500 ml) unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) salt
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) cold water
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) honey
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) very fresh canola oil
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Set aside.
- In a measuring cup, combine the water and honey. Add the oil. Pour over the dry ingredients and stir with a fork until the flour is just moistened, no more. Press the mixture into two 2.5-cm (1-inch) thick discs.
- Roll each disk of dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Use this pastry to make a pie or to line two pie plates. Flute the edges of the pie.
- To blind bake a pie crust, prick the entire surface of the dough with a fork and bake in a 220 ˚C (425 ˚F) preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
