Well I converted our pie crust recipe
The ingredients are prone to change a little depending on the flour you get.
Get about 1 1/2 cups of flour 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons of baking powder
Get five tablespoons of lard or shortning
put aside 4 or 5 tablespoons of ice cold water. Sift and measure the flour
Sift flour, salt and baking powder, cut in lard, or work in with your fingers.
Stir in ice water
Roll out on a floured surface.
Just before you put the pie in the oven spread a little melted butter on the outside (it gives it a crisper crust)
you can bake the pie in a paper bag for a crispier crust too if you dont want the butter.
for a prebaked pie shell bake the crust in the oven 5-7 minutes.
Fillings
Butterscotch pie
1 cup brown sugar
pinch of salt
6 tbs flour
3 eggs seperated
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup butter

Its a custard so its gonna be a little messy.
In a saucepan mix the sugar salt and flour together, slowly add the milk and stir constantly untill thick.
Beat egg yolks and mix in a small amount of cooked mixture, then stir the whole shebang together
cook untill very thick
take off heat add vanilla and butter . mix well and pour into pie shell.
make egg white meringue and pour over the top.
Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes or so.
