Place all ingredients into a food processor or high power blender and blitz until the mixture resembles a sticky dough.
Use your hands to gather the dough from the bowl and press everything together into a ball.
Place the ball of dough in the freezer for 10 minutes to chill. While the dough chills, lightly grease a 9” pie pan and preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C.
Place the dough ball in the center of a sheet of parchment paper and lay another sheet on top. Use the rolling pin to roll the dough out into a circle that’s about 2-3” bigger than your pie pan. Or for a little less neat but much easier method, just use your hands to push the dough straight into the pan.
If you’ve rolled the dough, peel off the top layer of parchment paper and carefully flip the dough to lay it on top of the greased pie pan. Peel off the parchment paper.
Push the dough into the base and edges of the pan. This dough does crack very easily. If it does, don’t worry! Just use your hands to squash pieces of excess pastry into the gaps. For a nice smooth finish, you can place a small piece of parchment paper over any lines or bumps, and rub a pestle from a pestle and mortar in circular motions over the paper. When you lift the paper off, the dough underneath should be nice and smooth.
Run a sharp knife around the rim of the pan to remove any excess pastry.
Use a fork to poke some holes in the base.
Bake for 13-16 minutes.
Leave the cooked crust in the pan until completely cooled. If you try to remove it when it’s still warm, it may crack.

Notes
This recipe makes a single crust pie, and the instructions show you how to fully bake it for cream fillings or other no-bake pies. For fruit pies or other recipes that call for a double pie crust, you can double this recipe.
To make a low carb pie crust, replace the sugar with your favorite low carb granulated sweetener.
You can also skip the sugar altogether to make a crust for a savory pie!
It's normal for the dough to be crumbly or for cracks to appear as you're making the pie. Use the tips above to smooth out any cracks, or just press them together with your fingers.
