Pie Crust

Ingredients

4 C. Flour                          
1 Tsp. baking powder
2 Tsp. salt
1 2/3 C. lard
1/2 C. water
1 egg, beaten
1 Tbs. distilled vinegar

Directions:
In a large bowl mix together flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in lard until mixture resembles course meal.  In a small bowl mix together water, egg and vinegar.  Pour into lard mixture and stir until dough thoroughly moistened and forms a ball. (I usually have to add a little more water.  I just do a little at a time until it is moistened and sticks together).  Divide into 4 portions and wrap tightly. Use dough within 3 days or freeze.
