Someone, teach me how to make a pie, please.
I lack all common sense regarding kitchens and stuff related to them.
As I see it you have 4 options:
Option one:
1) Go to the store
2) Buy a premade pie (Mrs. Edwards and Mrs. Smiths are my favorites)
3) Bake and eat
Option two:
1) Buy premade pie crust and a can of pie filling
2) Roll pie crust into pie pan, bake according to package directions
3) Add filling, bake again
4) Eat.
Option three:
Pie Crust1-1/4 cup flour
1 stick of butter (softened)
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/4 cup water
Directions:
Add flour, softened butter and salt to a food processor. Pulse the mixture until it forms little balls. Add in water slowly and turn the processor on for a few seconds. You may need more or less water, so start with a little and check the consistency. Add more if necessary.
The mixture should still be in small pieces. (like little peas ) Remove it from the processor and form into a ball. If it is too soft, put it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Dust a rolling pin with flour and roll the dough out on a piece of waxed paper until it is large enough to cover your pie plate. Lay over pie plate, crimp the ends and poke holes in it with a fork. Then bake for 10 minutes at 350 . While that is baking, do it all again to make your top crust
(well except the that last part, laying over a pie plate and such.)
Filling1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Dash of salt
2 tablespoons butter
6 cups thinly sliced and cored apple
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Mix sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, flour, and salt. Stir in the apples. Place into pie crust, dot with butter. Cover with top crust, and slit evenly to let steam escape. Seal the top crust to the bottom by pinching the edges together. Cover edge of the crust with a three inch strip of aluminum foil. Bake 40-50 minutes, until crust is brown and juice begins to bubble through top.
Option Four:
Buy the premade pie crusts and make the filling from option three. This is what I do and it turns out great every time
I have made my own pie crust, and they are good. But I'm too lazy to do that every time lol
And there you go, four ways to bake a pie
Feel free to use any filling you want, but apple pie a la mode is my FAVORITE. So I gave you my recipe for it
