Low Fat Pie Crust
This pie crust can easily be made fat free by changing the butter to fat free margarine. Which does not appear to be sold in Columbia, MO that I could find, so I had to use a low fat substitute.

Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 475°F.
  2. Mix together all of the ingredients. Stir with a fork until thoroughly mixed. Do not over-work the dough.
  3. Shape this mixture into a ball and place it between two pieces of wax paper that have been dusted with flour. Roll the pastry into a circle large enough to fit in a 9-inch pie pan.
  4. Spray pan with a non-fat cooking spray and Arrange crust in pan. Cut off the edges that hang over.
  5. Prick the bottom with a fork and brush over with a little bit of beaten egg white. Bake 10 minutes or until golden brown. Cool before adding filling.
Recipe Notes

It’s probably a good idea to prebake it before using it in almost any recipe.

If you are making a pie where the filling needs to be cooked with the shell, simply bake at 350°F for 45 minutes or however long the recipe calls for. Work foil over edges while baking so the crust won’t get overbrown. Remove foil for the last five minutes.
