Pie Crust - super crisp for custard pies

Originally part of pumpkin and yam pie recipe (Cooks Illustrated,Nov 2008, Revisiting Pumpkin Pie). Easier to use as separate recipe and excellent for any pie where the filling is moist and can make the crust soggy.

Nov 2011 - used in pumpkin-yam pie. Excellent. Made cute leaf cutouts and baked separately to decorate pie. They were tasty crackers on their own. Crust did stay crisp - unusually tasty and full of character.
