Blend both flours, sugar, and salt in processor. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal.

Gather each half into ball and flatten into disk. Wrap separately in plastic. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. DO AHEAD:

Turn overhang under and crimp edge decoratively. Repeat with second dough disk. Refrigerate while preparing filling.
