Peanut Butter Apple Pie Crust
1/2 cup cake flour 2 sticks very cold unsalted butter (I place it in the freezer for about twenty minutes) 1 tsp sea salt 1 heaping tsp brown sugar 1 tablespoon unsalted roasted peanuts, chopped very fine 5-7 tbs ice cold water 1 Tablespoon white vinegar Mix flour, cake flour, salt, brown sugar and peanuts. Cut in butter. Drizzle in vinegar then ice-cold water a tbsp at a time and, until crumbly dough stays together when pinched. Form two disks and refrigerate for 2 hours. Roll out dough to line a nine inch pie plate. This makes crust for two single crust pies. Filling
