The most common mistake in making pie dough is the amount of added water. Depending on the flour you use, you might need to add more or less than a recipe recommends.

pie dough:
2c + 2tbsp (300g) AP flour
1 tbsp (13g) sugar
1 tsp salt
8 oz (227g) butter, cold and cubed
4oz (113g) water, cold

combine the dry ingredients. add the cold, cubed butter and work into the dries until about the size of a blueberry. add all but a little of the cold water. mix with a spatula. check to see if the dough needs the rest of the water and maybe any more by squeezing the dough. wrap in plastic and chill at least 30 min before using.
