A couple pie crust hints:
- Use a deep dish pie plate (as seen on the left).
- Roll your dough out thin.
- Use a little sugar in your dough recipe.
- Before placing in the oven, use your finger tips to rub some milk on the top, just enough to moisten it, then sprinkle a little sugar. This will help it brown and look delicious!
Here is a little pie crust tutorial I made last last year:

Titus 2:3 says that we are to be
"...teachers of good things...".
We believe that part of these good things are practical skills that we all need in every day life to care for our family and neighbors.
One of our primary responsibilities as parents is equip our children with the skills and tools to one day be productive, well rounded adults. Children need to be exposed to many different areas of work. Not only should they know how to work, but they should want to work.
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us;
establish the work of our hands for us-
yes, establish the work of our hands.
Psalm 90:17

Kathy, thank you for this great video. I made my first from-scratch pie crust last week. It was okay. I realize now I made it much too thick. It also was pretty tasteless. I used all Crisco instead of butter. Do you think you could use half Crisco and half butter? I was thinking that butter is pretty pricey.
Kathy says:
Yes, half and half will work.
