You might try just using the food processor for incorporating the butter, then put it in a bowl and add the liquid manually. That's the point where it gets tricky with a food processor.

While they taste okay, it seems the crust is a little tough and chewie. I didn't over process, as I stopped the moment the dough came together. I believe I would either use shortening next time or else fry them rather than bake them.

Cherries and apricots are in season now in new Mexico and this recipe looks perfect for all the extra fruit! My boyfriend is getting back from a too long trip in two weeks and boy does he LOVE pie. I had a question, if I prepare these now, assemble them and all, could I freeze them raw and pull them out on the day and bake them up?
