Instructions
  1. TIP: COLD INGRDIENTS! Do not over handle dough. Place olive oil in a container to freeze 3-4 hours minimum. The consistency should resemble honey when solidified. Place solidified oil, flour, salt and baking powder in food processor and pulse a few times. Add remaining ingredients and pulse until dough balls forms. Place ball in air tight container or plastic wrap and put in fridge for 1 hour to chill. Lightly flour surface, roll ball out to 1/8 inch thick and place in a pie plate. (beginners tip, try rolling between 2 sheets of lightly floured waxed paper) For a cream pie, lightly bake, for a regular pie, put in the filling and BAKE!
Recipe Notes

Twists:  Use Tuscan Herb olive oil for a savory crusted pot pie or quiche.  Lime or Lemon oils for a meringue pie.  Exchange the balsamic vinegars to match the pie:  blackberry, strawberry, blueberry, coconut, red apple, cinnamon pear - great for pumpkin!
