Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups white whole wheat flour sub whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1 teaspoon pink sea salt
  • ½ cup organic unsalted butter sub vegan butter (unsalted)
  • 8-10 tablespoon cool water

Instructions
 

  • In a medium sized bowl, add your flour, salt, and butter.
  • Using a pastry cutter, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Next, start folding in 2 tablespoons of water at a time with a fork.
  • The mixture will start coming together after about 7-8 tablespoons of water. At this point, you can use your hands to press it together. Add more water if its needed.
  • Roll your ball of dough on a floured surface.
  • Transfer your dough to a pie dish and fold over the edges.
  • Prick the dough with a fork on the sides and the bottom.
  • If you are baking it immediately, I would recommend using pie stones on the bottom. If not, store in the fridge and bake it when you are ready. **

Notes

*The butter is best cold. Make sure to keep it in the fridge until you are ready to use it.
**The crust holds its form best if you chill it for at least an hour before baking.
