AHH! huuuuuggge problem.. HELP HELP HELP!?
I need 1 and 1/3 cups of flour for a pie crust….. But i only have 1 cup! What can i use instead of flour…
Here’s the recipe…
1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Crisco vegetable shortening, plain or butter-flavored (see Cook’s Note)
1/2 teaspoon kosher or coarse salt
3 tablespoons ice water
Mix flour and salt in mixing bowl. Cut shortening into the flour with a pastry cutter, until mixture resembles the texture of tiny split peas. Do not use your hands to try and mix it, the heat from you hands will melt the shortening, causing the pastry to be "heavy", not light and flaky.
Once mixture is the right texture, add the ice water and combine with a fork. It may appear as if it needs more water, it does not. Quickly gather the dough into a ball and flatten into a 4-inch-wide disk. Wrap in plastic, and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
Remove dough disk from refrigerator. If stiff and very cold, let stand until dough is cool but malleable.
Using a floured rolling pin, roll dough disk on a lightly floured surface from the center out in each direction, forming a 12-inch circle. To transfer dough, carefully roll it around the rolling pin, lift and unroll dough, centering it in an ungreased 9-inch regular or deep-dish pie plate. (Or you can fold dough in quarters, then place dough point in center of pie pan and unfold dough, whatever is easiest for you.)
THank you sooo much!
You’lll need even more flour, because when you roll out the dough, the table, etc and the rolling pin have to be floured.
I suggest you go buy some more flour, or see if you can borrow a cup or so of flour form a neighbor or friend that lives close by.
If you have some baking mix, Bisquik or the like, use that. Else, just cut the other ingredients by 1/4 and plan on rolling the goomer thinner than normal–or use an 8 vs 9" pan.

Not sure if this will give you any type of help. But, if you are making a pie, normally you will have left over crust that you cut off the pie? maybe you should just go with what you have it may be a smaller amount, and you may not have enough? But on the other hand you may be have just enough.
Hope that makes sense?
