Ingredients
- 1 cup cake flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ⅛ cup baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 ¼ cups shortening
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup cold water
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 teaspoons almond extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl, stir together the cake flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, white sugar, and brown sugar. Cut in the shortening by pinching between your fingers or using a pastry blender, until the mixture has lumps no larger than peas. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, water, vanilla, and almond extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and mix until the dough comes together. Divide the dough into halves, pat into a ball, and flatten slightly. Wrap each one in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight before rolling out to make a crust.

Reviews
The dough was a snap to bring together but I feel the amounts were off. I think it needs approx. 1/2 cup extra flour to keep it from sticking to everything in sight. I also used only 1 cup shortening. Delicious results, however! Used it to make Shelly Hospitality’s Blueberry Handpies.
By proportions of other crusts I have made, the flour should total 3 cups.
used this recipe with the sour cream Apple pie to rave reviews! It was delicious altho agree with previous reviewer I added alot more flour…perhaps the msmts can be reviewed?
This was good but I might use less shortening next time. I have never seen a recipe with 1/8 cup of baking powder before and I used only 1/8 tsp. It seemed to work. I also wonder if the ‘cup’ referred to for the flour is a proper dry measure cup or a liquid measure cup like a Pyrex one. It makes a difference and may be why the 1 1/4 cup shortening seemed like too much.
