Easy Potpourri Pie Craft

by Brandie Valenzuela    

What You Need:

1 cup flour

1 cup salt

Water

Pie tin (any size)

Cooking spray

Potpourri

Butter knife

How To Do It:

1. Mix together flour and salt, and stir in enough water to form a workable, but not sticky, dough.

2. Spray tin with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 250 degrees.

3. Roll out dough into large circle about 1/4 inch thick, just as you would for making a normal pie, and line tin with the rolled out dough. Wrap up remaining dough for later.

4. Cook pie crust for at least 30 minutes. Let cool.

5. Fill cooled crust with potpourri.

6. Take remaining dough scraps, roll into a large circle, and cut into strips for lattice top crust.

7. Arrange strips over potpourri, in the same way you would make an edible lattice crust pie. Dampen dough to "glue" it down to already cooked crust.

8. Let top crust dry for 1-2 days. Decorate top of crust anyway you wish. Some ideas are fabric or ribbon bows, dried apples, and cinnamon sticks.
