16 servings

  • 1 cup cake flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ⅛ cup baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 ¼ cups shortening
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ cup cold water
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 teaspoons almond extract

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, stir together the cake flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, white sugar, and brown sugar. Cut in the shortening by pinching between your fingers or using a pastry blender, until the mixture has lumps no larger than peas. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, water, vanilla, and almond extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and mix until the dough comes together. Divide the dough into halves, pat into a ball, and flatten slightly. Wrap each one in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight before rolling out to make a crust.
