Thanks for the recipe for Peach Pie - just what I was looking for - peaches are in season!!!

Problem crusts - Never Again - Try This

Makes 3 covered Pies

1 lb. crisco
5 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
Mix the previous 3 ingredients until crumbly.

Add 1 cup 7-UP or Sprite
Depending on the altitude where you live
you may need more or less....7Up/Sprite

You can play and play with this - if it starts to get stiff, just add a bit (1 tsp at a time) more 7-up and mix, roll on a floured surface quite thin. Bake at the temperature required for your pie, and cover the crust with tinfoil before baking.

Place your pastry into the freezer for a few minutes before baking - Helps with shrinkage of the pastry shell.

You can freeze this recipe for a month.
