1 1/2 - 2 ft of plastic wrap
& lay it flat overlapping the other piece of plastic wrap.

Tape the end corners to your countertop.

Form the dough with hands into a rectangular shape & flatten the dough on the plastic wrap, keeping it in a rectangular shape.

Cut off about:
1 1/2 - 2 ft. more plastic wrap
Cover the dough with it.


Cut off another piece about:

Roll out with a rolling pin or side of a smooth jar or glass to a little larger size than an 9x13 pan.

Remove the top plastic wrap from piecrust.

(Getting the Top or Bottom Crust in the Pan)

Flip the piecrust into the pan & move it around with the plastic wrap until centered in the pan.

May need to fill in the dough by cutting off edges & move where needed.
