Pie crust crumbling anyone know why?
Can someone please tell me why my pie crust is crumbling when i try to pick it up?
I bought the jiffy pie crust you mix yourself and i made it a few days ago and had no problem!
now i am trying to make them tonight and when ever i try to pick it up it falls apart.t could it have anything to do with it being hot and humid in the house or maybe not enough water even tho i put the same amount in as before?

Probably is the temperature, be sure to use ice cold water, even when it's not hot and humid.

Not enough water. It's also possible there was something wrong with the mix itself- could have been old. I'd use those premade crusts if I were you. They're a lot easier.

Put it in a pan. Tip it over gently pushing the center of the bottom of the pan.
