Pies and pastries are delicious baked goods made from pastry dough and filling. Pastry dough consists of high fat content which contributes to a flaky or crumbly texture when baked properly. A good pastry is light, airy, and fatty yet firm enough to hold the filling. When making short crust pastry, the fat and flour must be thoroughly blended before adding liquid to ensure the flour is adequately coated. Common types of pastries include cream puffs, puff pastry, Danish pastry, French pastries, pies, tarts, and croissants. Key pastry ingredients include all-purpose flour, fats like lard or shortening, water, and salt.
