Ingredients
-
1/2 c. plus 2 Tbsp. all-purpose unbleached flour
1/4 c. whole wheat flour
3 Tbsp. cold margarine, cut into small pieces
3 to 4 Tbsp. ice water
2 c. dried beans, washed or pie weights
Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 450\u00b0.
Lightly coat an 8-inch pie pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Combine 1/2 cup of the unbleached flour with the whole wheat flour in a bowl or in a food processor bowl and add the margarine.
In the bowl, use a fork to crumble the flour and margarine into a coarse mixture.
In the food processor, use the metal chopping blade and pulse the machine 10 to 12 times to cut the margarine into small pieces.
As you form the mixture, add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the lumps appear moist.
Transfer the dough to a board and lightly knead it for 1 minute.
Form into a ball.
Place in a small bowl; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
