cheddar stout pie crust
This crust makes any savory pie totally rock! First time I made it was for a classic stout stew. It gives chicken pot pie an unexpected pop, and really steps up a green tomato pie or quiche.

How To Make cheddar stout pie crust
-
Step 1Pulse flour and salt to combine.
-
Step 2Add butter and cheese. Pulse just till mixture looks like coarse meal with pea sized bits of butter.
-
Step 3Drizzle in 6 tablespoons of beer and pulse to combine. Check to see if the dough will hold its shape, if not add up to 1 tablespoon of beer.
-
Step 4Pat dough into a disk, wrap in plastic and chill for at least an hour or overnight.
-
Step 5Suggestion: roll dough out between two lightly floured sheets of parchment paper. Start by lightly tapping the dough to expand it, before actually rolling. It will help keep the edges from splitting and cracking as well as help it to stay the same thickness.
