Oil Pie Crust (No Margarine)

July 20, 2008

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

* 2/3 cup whole wheat flour
* 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
* 1 tablespoon salt
* 1/3 cup canola oil
* 3 tablespoons cold vegan soymilk

Directions:

A healthy pie crust!

In large bowl, combine flours and
salt. In separate bowl, combine oil
and soy milk. Add oil-milk mixture all
at once to flour mixture and mix with
hands to form smooth ball. You may
need to add 1-2 tablespoons of cold
water if it is too dry to form the
ball. Put ball in between 2 sheets of
wax paper and flatten with a rolling
pin to a 11″ diameter circle, closing
any cracks with a couple drops of water.
Put in pie pan and bake at 400F for 10-
12 minutes.

This is a great alternative to crusts
made with lard, butter, or margarine.
All of the fat is mono-saturated, the
good kind!

Serves: 1 11 inch crust

Preparation time: 20 min
