The Recipe Instructions |

Ingredients
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 1/4 cup white all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 pinch cinnamon
1/4 cup canola oil
1 tbsp apple juice or cider - (to 2)
Directions
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and continue cooking,
stirring gently, until golden brown and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes (do not
allow to burn). Let cool slightly.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and cinnamon.
In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the melted butter with the oil;
with a fork, gently stir into the flour mixture until evenly combined. Add
the apple juice, 1 tablespoon at a time, just until the dough begins to
hold together. Gather the dough into a ball and flatten to a disk.
Roll out the dough between 2 sheets of plastic wrap to form a 13-inch
circle. Transfer to an 8-inch pie plate, pressing to form a rim; flute the
rim, if desired. Use as directed in recipes. (The unbaked crust can be
wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to 2 days, or frozen up to 1
month.)

Comments: This deliciously tender, buttery crust calls for white
(bleached) all-purpose flour; it absorbs less water then unbleached flour,
so the crust will be more tender. The extra buttery flavor comes from
browning the butter. You can easily make this crust ahead of time and
refrigerate or freeze it for later use.
