This reliable vegan shortcrust pastry is an essential building block for any plant-based baker. By using chilled vegan butter and ice-cold water, you can achieve a wonderfully short, flaky texture that rivals any traditional crust. The addition of a touch of sugar makes it particularly well-suited for sweet seasonal fruit pies, though it remains versatile enough for a variety of homemade bakes.

Designed for convenience, this vegan pastry category staple uses a food processor to ensure the fats stay cold during the mixing process. It makes enough for a standard double-crust pie or two open tarts, providing a golden, crisp finish every time. Use it as a base for a classic apple pie or a sophisticated berry galette for a dairy-free dessert that everyone can enjoy.

Ingredients for Vegan Short Pastry Crust

325g plain flour, plus more for dusting
2 cucharadas de azúcar
1 cucharadita de sal
240ml Earth Balance, chilled and cut into 1-inch pieces
60 to 120ml ice water

How to make Vegan Short Pastry Crust

Lightly grease a pie pan and set aside. In a food processor, pulse the flour, sugar, and salt until combined. Add the Earth Balance and pulse for about 15 seconds (it will look like coarse meal). Slowly pour 60ml water into the mixture and pulse until the dough is moist and holds together when pinched. If it’s too dry, add a little more water.

Flour a clean work surface and turn the dough out onto it. Divide into two balls, rolling one out into a 12-inch circle, starting from the centre and rolling outward. Place into the pie pan and pinch together the edges of the crust around the pan. Roll out the second ball of dough into a 12-inch circle and either cut into long strips or keep as is.
