Pie crust for vegetarians?

[rdharma]

2. Use extra virgin coconut oil?

This makes a delicious, flakey pastry and I have had many favorable comments on it.
•3/4 cup fat (1/2 solid coconut oil and 1/2 butter or all coconut oil)
•2 cups organic unbleached all purpose flour
•1 teaspoon salt
•3 - 4 tablespoons ice cold water

Cut the coconut oil and butter into the flour and salt with pastry blender or two knives. Add the water 1 tablespoon at a time and mix well.

Roll out on floured board. Pastry is very tender and may be partially rolled around rolling pin for ease of picking up to place in pie pan.

I've never tried this recipe. In fact, I always buy pre-made frozen pie crust from a local baker. So take this recommendation with a grain of salt.
