OIL PIE CRUST

  2 CUPS FLOUR

1/2 CUP VEGETABLE OIL, CORN OR SAFFLOWER

1/4 CUP YOGURT

1/2 TEASPOON VINEGAR

    1 TEASPOON GRANULATED SUGAR

     2 PINCHES OF SALT OR 1/2 TEASPOON BAKING SODA

Sift flour, sugar and soda into a medium bowl. Place oil, yogurt and vinegar into a measuring cup, mix together and add to dry ingredients.

If you prefer whole grain flour, add two tablespoon of oil and change the yogurt to 1/3 cup. Play around with it until you get the constancy you desire, every time you use a different type of flour, the amounts vary. If you never used whole grain before start off with half all-purpose and half all grain.

Even though it is whole grain, we are not talking about bread flour.  You can buy pure, unbleached pastry flour. Using 100 % whole wheat bread flour by itself is not advisable, it does not make a workable dough.
