This deliciously tender, buttery crust calls for white (bleached) all-purpose flour; it absorbs less water than unbleached flour, so the crust will be more tender. The extra buttery flavor comes from browning the butter. You can easily make this crust ahead of time and refrigerate or freeze it for later use.
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups white all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
Pinch cinnamon
1/4 cup canola oil
1-2 tablespoons apple juice or cider
1. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and continue cooking, stirring gently, until golden brown and fragrant, 3-4 minutes (do not allow to burn). Let cool slightly.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and cinnamon.
3. In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the melted butter with the oil; with a fork, gently stir into the flour mixture until evenly combined. Add the apple juice, 1 Tbsp at a time, just until the dough begins to hold together. Gather the dough into a ball and flatten to a disk.
4. Roll out the dough between 2 sheets of plastic wrap to form a 13-inch circle. Transfer to an 8-inch pie plate, pressing to form a rim; flute the rim, if desired. Use as directed in recipes. (The unbaked crust can be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to 2 days, or frozen up to 1 month.)
