Cheesy Quiche Crust

Ingredients

• 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
• 6 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces
• 0.25 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• 5 teaspoons cold water

Steps

1. Gather all ingredients.
2. Place flour in a large bowl. Sprinkle in butter; rub butter into flour until it resembles bread crumbs. Stir in cheese.
3. Sprinkle cold water over flour mixture, a teaspoon at a time, stirring lightly with a fork. Add just enough water to allow dough to form a ball and cleanly leave the sides of the bowl.
4. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
5. Roll out dough and place in a 9-inch pie or quiche pan. Use a fork to prick holes over the bottom of pastry.
6. Bake crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes before filling with quiche filling of your choice.
