   With processor running, drizzle water one tablespoon at a time until mixture pulls away from the processor bowl and forms a loose ball.
3. 3
   Gently shape dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30-45 minutes.
4. 4
   Cut dough in half and form each half into a ball. Onto a lightly floured surface, gently roll one half of dough out to two inches larger than the pie plate.
5. 5
   Roll dough onto rolling pin and move to pie plate, being careful not to tear during transfer. If baking a filled pie, repeat process for top crust. Bake per pie filling instructions. Pie crust should turn out golden brown.
