Lord Sara! Thank you...I have no idea what my head was doing??? I have another crust recipe that's is vegan but I don't know what I was thinking. Uhg. I changed it.

Not sure why this is labeled vegan, since the recipe calls for butter and eggs.

actually I figured it out...I did make this crust vegan but I copy and pasted the recipe from the crust that isnt vegan! I went back to my hand written recipe and there are no eggs and it's made with coconut oil, not butter. Silly Izzy.
