40gcold vegan butter(I like to use the vegan block from Naturli)
55gwater
Instructions
Mix the flour and salt in a bowl.
Cut the vegan butter into small pieces and add it to the flour.
Rub the butter and flour between the fingers until combined.
Now, add the water and mix it into the flour.
Transfer the loose dough onto a flat surface and knead the dough until just combined. Do not overknead the dough as it will get tough otherwise.
Cover the dough in cling film and put it into the fridge to rest for at least 30 minutes. Alternatively, the dough can be left in the fridge overnight and used the next day.
If left in the fridge for only 30-60 minutes, the dough will be ready to roll out and use immediately. If you have left the dough in the fridge for more than an hour or overnight then it is important to allow it to soften slightly at room temperature before rolling it out. It should be pliable so it's easy to roll out.
Once the dough has been rolled out to your desired thickness (for most uses I aim for 2-3mm), drape it over your pie dish and trim off any overlapping dough.
Stab base with a fork in a few areas. This allows any trapped air to escape while baking, ensuring that your base remains flat and even. Now, you can now add your filling. For best results, make sure your filling is cold or at room temperature.
It's best to bake the dough at 180°C fan for about 30 minutes, based on 2-3mm dough thickness . However, the baking time does depend on what the filling is and how thick you've rolled the dough.
