Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and diced

Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Add the cold, diced butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add the ice water, a little at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
- Divide the dough into two equal parts, shape into disks, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Roll out one disk of dough on a floured surface to fit your pie plate. Place the dough into the plate and trim any excess overhang. Fill with your desired pie filling.
- Roll out the second disk of dough and place it over the filling. Trim any excess overhang and crimp the edges to seal the pie.
- Bake as directed in your pie recipe until the crust is golden brown and flaky.
