I don't know if I can fix it or not
Try adding 2 more cups of flour. The standard recipe is 1/3 cup fat to 1 cup of flour. Good luck. You can just form these into balls or disks, double wrap, and freeze for up to six months if you don't need all of these crusts today. I make mine 12 at a time and freeze.
