All-Butter Piecrust

Makes 12 mini crusts

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups (375 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons (6 grams) kosher salt
  • 1 cup (227 grams) cold unsalted butter, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • ½ cup (120 grams) ice water, plus more as needed

Instructions

  • In the work bowl of a food processor, pulse flour and salt until combined. Add cold butter, and pulse until mixture is crumbly and butter pieces are pea-size. With processor running, add ½ cup (120 grams) ice water in a slow, steady stream just until dough comes together. (Mixture may appear crumbly. It should be moist and hold together when pinched.) Add more ice water as needed.
  • Turn out dough, and divide in half. Shape each portion into a disk, and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 2 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Let frozen dough thaw overnight in refrigerator before using.
