Combine the flour, brown sugar, and shorting in a bowl. Cut with pastry blender or rub together until it forms fine crumbs. While preparing the liquid, put unbaked pie shell in preheated oven at 350 degrees for about 5 minutes. This prevents bottom from getting soggy.

Bake in 400 degree oven for 10 minutes. Reduce the oven to 350 degrees and bake 30 minutes longer until the center does not move when it is shaken.
