Ingredients:


1 cup unbleached flour

1/2 Teaspoon granulated sugar

1/2 Teaspoon salt

1/3 cup olive oil

1 1/2 Tablespoon skim milk -- or as needed
 

Preparation / Directions:


Combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a 9" pie plate and stir with fork to blend. Drizzle the oil and milk over the mixture, and lightly toss it with the fork or your fingertips until crumbly. Pinch the mixture together; if it is too dry and crumbly, add a few more drops of milk. With the back of a spoon or your fingers, press or pat the dough evenly over bottom and up the sides and rim of the pie plate, taking care not to build it up in the corners. To crimp the edge, either press the floured tines of a fork onto the dough on rim, or pinch the dough into a fluted pattern with your fingers. Refrigerate the crust for at least 30 minutes. Fill and bake according to your pie recipe directions.
