Pie Crust Dough

1. 1

   Place both of the flours in a medium-sized bowl.

2. 2

   Cut the butter into small slices. Using your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour, incorporating only a few butter slices at a time. During the process of cutting the butter into the flour, you are trying to coat the flour granules with butter. When you have incorporated all of the butter, the mixture should look like dry sand.

3. 3

   Next, add in the ice cold water. Begin to combine the mixture with your hands, continuing until it forms a ball of dough. If all of the dough does not want to come together in a ball, add additional ice water 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough comes together.

4. 4

   Once you have your ball of dough, divide it into 2 equal portions and wrap in plastic wrap. Place in the refrigerator if planning on using dough within the next 1 to 2 days, or freeze dough for longer term storage.
