-Cut shortening into flour until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
-In separate bowl, combine remaining ingredients.
-Mix egg mixture into flour and shortening; add more
flour if sticky.
-Form dough into 2 or 3 equal-sized balls.
-Place a dough ball between two pieces of wax paper and roll out into a
circle, rolling from the center out.
Notes: I make up the pie dough ahead of time. I roll dough out between wax paper and place in large flat Tupperware® container and throw in freezer. I remove dough as needed.
