Special Diets:
Ingredients
- 7 tablespoons cold non-hydrogenated, non-dairy margarine, cut into small pieces
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
Method
Put margarine into a small bowl and freeze while you prepare other ingredients.
Mix the flours with salt in a medium bowl or food processor.
Add cold margarine and cut in using a pastry blender, or by pulsing in the food processor.
Add 2 to 3 tablespoons ice water, about 1/2 tablespoon at a time, until dough forms into a ball.
Gather up and pat out into a disc.
Cover with plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
When ready to use, roll dough out on a lightly floured surface into a 10-inch circle.
Gently fold into quarters using a little flour as needed to prevent sticking.
Place dough into a 9-inch pie plate and carefully unfold, fitting loosely and then pressing into place. Trim and crimp edges for a decorative crust.
