Several years ago, my mom showed me her genius method for making pie crusts. Up to that time, I only made pies at Thanksgiving, and even then I hated making them. Not only did the whole idea of making a pie crust intimidate me, it was messy and they always turned out tough.
With just one pie-making lesson my whole attitude about pie crusts changed!
Now my pies turned out flaky and lovely! Oh – and perfect every, single time! I was no longer intimidated…I was actually excited to show off my amazing pie crust skills!!

Loved this video! Cannot wait to try it! Thanks for sharing;)
Awesome! Please let me know how it turns out for you.
I’ve tried many pie crust recipes looking for just the right one. Little did I know it ws only my method that needed to be changed. It was timely too. I start making pies next week.This is marvelous! Thank you for sharing with Imparting Grace.
Isn’t that amazing??? The method completely revolutionized my pie crust making skills (which is saying a lot, because I’d avoid pie crusts any time I could! LOL!)
Thanks, Rosilind! I look forward to giving it a try! ☺?
Did you try it? How did it turn out for you?
Prefer the flavour of butter to shortening in a pie crust. To be a little more environmentally conscious, be aware that flour washes away easily with cold water. I use a large scraper (as in small tool for drywall) to get moist bits off. It does not harm most surfaces, at least not the ones in my kitchen, if kept flat.
Good advice!
I’ve always been intimidated by pie crusts. Kind of like sewing and zippers. I’ll check out your mom’s video. Thanks. Just in time for Thanksgiving.
Did you try this out? How did it work for you?
Great method & great video. I watched repeatedly in order to get all the details. I never was able to understand what your mom was demonstrating right after she crimped the edge of crust, when she was spreading her fingers.
I think it would be helpful if the pie was within view without her having to lift it up to the camera. In other words have the camera pointed at her hands & the crust so her technique can be visualized better. I can’t wait to try this!! Thanks for sharing.
She was spread her fingers in a “V” and inserted her index finger on the other hand between the two “V” fingers to create a crimp.
