Making a vegan pie crust is quite simple, Jackie! Vegetable shortening (such as Crisco) works beautifully as the fat in pie crust, as does Earth Balance (the baking sticks rather than the tubs), which you can find in the butter section of many grocery stores these days. Our Classic Double Pie Crust recipe calls for a combination of both shortening and butter, which we find results in a delicious combination. Since Earth Balance is salted, you'll want to follow the instructions for a salted butter. Everything else is exactly the same. Happy vegan baking! Kat@KAF
