Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • ¾ cup margarine

  • 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 4 tablespoons ice water, or as needed

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Place margarine in a stainless steel mixing bowl. Mix using an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on low speed until slightly soft. Pour in flour and salt; continue to mix at low speed to combine. Pour in ice water gradually until a dough forms.

  3. Divide dough in half. Wrap one portion of dough in plastic and refrigerate for later use. Roll out the other portion of dough on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin. Mold into a 9-inch tart pan. Prick dough base evenly with a fork.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until crust is lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.
