Prepare Dough
Note: If you prefer, you can use a 9-inch store-purchased unbaked pie crust instead of making it from scratch. Combine salt and flour in a bowl. Grate cold butter over the flour mix. Combine gently with hands. Add ice water (no ice) and mix. Wrap in plastic wrap and store in fridge for a minimum of 15 minutes.

Roll Out Dough
Note: If using store-purchased frozen pie crust, bake crust following the instructions printed on the label. Grease a 9-inch pie dish. Once dough has rested, gently pound and roll dough into a disc about 1/4" thick allowing for about 1" of overhang. With the help of the rolling pin, lift the dough into the pie dish, pressing firmly against sides and bottom of dish. Trim overhanging dough & prick bottom of dough with a fork. Cut a piece of parchment paper and insert it on top of dough. Pour in pie weights or dried beans to keep dough from puffing up and losing its form while cooking. Bake at 375F for 35-40 minutes or until bottom of pie shell is golden brown. Remove dried beans and place back in oven for 5 minutes.
