Have you ever tried to make a pie crust and it not turn out? Well I have and got frustrated that I actually threw it across the room. Until my neighbor who is an excellent cook taught me how to make an Oil Pie Crust. It is the best and easy to make and never fails. It great for beginners or for those of us who just couldn't seem to make one. I made this one for several years before I went back and tried making the standard pie crust . I would recommend this recipe to anyone.
