Gently press dough into the bottom and sides of the pan. For a pie, wrap dough lightly around a rolling pin and transfer to the pie pan. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least a half hour (or up to 2-3 days).Ĭut the dough in half (or a 60/40 ratio if creating a lattice top). On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a 14" round for a 9" pie pan. To make the dough uniform, fold the dough in half, using the paper. Press down and fold in the opposite direction. Place the dough on parchment paper and use the paper to press the dough into a disk. Fill your crust with COLD pie filling, mounding it in the middle. Stick your pie pan in the fridge or freezer if there is any time lag before the next step. Gradually add more water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough holds together when squeezed in your hand. Roll out your first pie crust into about a 13 inch circle and lay it in an ungreased 9 inch pie plate. Add four tablespoons of water and mix the dough together until uniform. Add the second half the cubed butter and rub in into the flour, but leave it in larger pieces (approximately the size of your thumbnail). Add half of the cold, cubed butter and rub the butter and flour between your fingers until it resembles coarse sand. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and sugar.

Alternatively, pie dough can be kept in the freeze r for up to 3 months when wrapped well. Note: To create a single 9" pie crust, cut the amount of each ingredient in half. Do not roll it thicker or it will not bake evenly likewise, do not roll it thinner or it will be prone to ripping or tearing. The dough should be between 1/8" and 1/4" thick. The dough should be approximately 14" round for a bottom crust in a 9" pie pan. Let the dough come to you instead of twisting yourself to roll the dough -this will help you keep the dough an even thickness. Using the parchment paper to help you roll out the dough makes it easier to move and transfer the dough when the moment comes. Roll out in one direction, physically move the dough (not the paper), and roll out from another angle to create a circular shape. The parchment paper is a nonstick surface which allows you to move the dough around as you roll it out, preventing it from sticking to the paper. Sprinkle a light amount of flour over the pie dough and roll out using a rolling pin. You can use a knife, a pizza cutter, pasta wheel or a pretty lattice cutter to cut them. Cut the pie crust into long strips about 1/2 to 3/4 wide. This ratio will provide extra dough for the bottom to make it easier to use and shape. Roll the dough out to 1/4 thickness and approximately a 12 circle on a lightly floured surface. If creating a lattice pattern, cut dough in a 60/40 ratio since less dough is needed to cover the top. Cut the dough in half (50/50 ratio) if creating a double crust pie or two single pie crusts. Cover and store at room temperature.When you are ready to form the crust, sprinkle a light amount of flour over the same parchment paper. DO AHEAD: Tart can be prepared 1 day ahead. Step 5īake tart until crust is golden brown and cherry filling is bubbling thickly, about 1 hour 5 minutes. Brush some of glaze over lattice crust sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar.

Arrange several strips, spaced 3/4 inch apart, over filling. Roll out second dough disk on lightly floured surface to 11-inch round cut into 3/4-inch-wide strips. Spread filling in crust sprinkle with pistachios. Press dough gently into pan trim overhang even with top of pan sides. Transfer round to 9-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom.
