Add butter and cut in using a pastry blender, or pulse in food processor, to form pea-size pieces.

Add 2 to 3 tablespoons ice water, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, until dough forms into a ball. Gather up and pat into a disc.

If possible, cover and refrigerate dough for 30 minutes before rolling out.

When ready to use, roll dough out on a lightly floured surface into a 10-inch circle.

Gently fold into quarters using a little flour as needed to prevent sticking.

Place dough in pie plate and carefully unfold, fitting loosely and then pressing into place. Trim the edges and crimp for a decorative crust.
