i’ve always baked a pie with crisco. always. there isn’t a why, except, we didn’t have a recipe & knew nothing about pie crusts when a friend from church gave us her grandma’s recipe 30 years ago. pie is what started us on this path & no need to fix what’s not broken. ok, but the one ding dang thing i hate about it is the dirty measuring cup! haha. i hate cleaning greasy measuring cups! yes, i’m the girl that doesn’t love lotions on her hands. i have no idea why and i haven’t done enough therapy to figure it out. anyways, here’s a little taste of one of my favorite pie hacks, line the measuring cup with a paper towel, scoop the crisco on top of the paper towel and it plops right out!! clean measuring cup. the funniest thing about this whole story is, i learned it at a wilton’s cake decorating class when i was 10!
y’all enjoy and go bake a pie!
