Pie Crust

For Two 9-inch pie crusts:
2 1/2 c flour
1 tsp salt
1 c shortening (or unsalted butter)
4 TBSP water
3 tsp vinegar
1 egg, beaten
optional - a little cinnamon

Mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening/butter until pea-sized lumps are formed. Gradually stir in water, vinegar, and egg and stir just until dough forms a ball. Roll out on floured cutting board.
For pre-baked pie crust, bake at 475 degrees for 8-10 minutes until light golden brown.
