Double Pie Crust
2 cups freshly milled flour (hard white)
1 tsp. salt
2/3 cups and 2 Tbs. butter
7 Tbs. cold water
Combine flour and salt. Cut in butter (either with a pastry blender or two forks work fine). Add water and mix. If the dough is too wet, add a little more flour. Divide dough in half and roll out on floured surface. Makes 1 double pie crust.
*If using soft white wheat, use 2 1/2 cups of flour.
Homemade Blackberry Pie with berries freshly picked at Southern Belle Farms. This is my first truly homemade pie all the way down to blackberries that were picked that morning -I will be heading back to that farm in June this year to pick more! Yum! I realize it doesn't look that impressive, but I was just excited to have something that resembled a pie and tasted great....especially served hot with vanilla ice cream!
Homemade Peach Pie with locally grown Georgia peaches from the Brookwood Farmer's Market
(I got all fancy on this one and attempted the lattice topping -- note: looks much more impressive than the level of difficulty required!)
