I have no idea what I did wrong with this recipe but it turned out totally wrong kind of wish you would have shown you working the flour and sugar together cuz I did everything like it was shown here and it did not turn out like that at all! It was just a big crumb mess really, looked more like something you would put over apple crisp more than anything.

@Kiisu101 Maybe it's because you used all-purpose flour that is richer in gluten, that's why you need to use less. Try again using only 4 cups of flour, and if it's still crumbly, add a little cold water or half egg white to make it elastic. Let me know!

but dunt u think kneedin will give u oilyness of butter

[yellowsaffron]

[dcostajean]

Strange way of making a pastry base.

Where's the flour and butter rubbing with fingers?

and Powdered sugar? o.O what about normal caster sugar or something? lol

[yellowsaffron]

@DollyLocksable I'm not sure I've understood your question... the flour can be kneaded with butter also by hand; the powdered sugar blends better in the dough, but also the caster sugar is fine

Hi , is this pastry dough recipe considered short-crust pastry ?

[yellowsaffron]

@rosickyo7 Yes, it is. You can use it for a tart or a pie!

Thanks for this, I can never make pastry that doesn't fall apart when you try to roll it.

Tomorrow I have to bake a birthday cake, would it be a good idea to use this instead of biscuit?

[Yndin]

@Hexpigge nope, it won't grow.
