Big Batch Pie Dough

Using a food scale, measure all ingredients.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, add flour and salt and mix until combined.

Add butter, a pound at a time, and mix until dough resembles coarse crumbs.

While the mixer is running, slowly add water until a soft dough is formed. Don't overmix. You just want everything combined.

Remove the dough from the mixing bowl and divide it into 5 equal portions (about 9-10oz each). Form each portion into a round disc and cover each with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 2 hours before rolling out for pie crust. Makes 5 single-crust pies.
