------------------------------------------------------------

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup vegetable oil

2 tablespoons cold milk

Instructions: Sift the flour, sugar, and slat into a 0-inch pie plate. In a 1 cup measuring cup, mix together the oil and milk and pour over the flour mixture.

Using a fork, mix until completely dampened. Press the dough evenly over the bottom of the pan, then up the sides and over the rim.

To use as an unbaked shell: Fill with the desired pie filling and bake according to the directions.

To use as a baked shell: Pick the surface of the dough with a fork several times and bake in a preheated 425* oven for 12 to 15 minutes; cool and fill as desired.

OPTION: You can even use the crest for beef pot pies or with any other savory filling; just eliminate the 2 tablespoons of sugar.
