Ingredients

100%rye flour pie dough

  • 2 ½ cups rye flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 14 tablespoons chilled butter
  • ¾ cup ice water- plus more as needed

Rye blend pie dough

  • 1 cup rye flour
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 14 tablespoons chilled butter
  • cup ice water

Instructions

  • Mix the flour and salt together in a medium-sized bowl. Cut the butter into ½-inch pieces. Add it to the flour mixture and with your hands or pastry cutter, break the butter cubes into small pea-sized pieces.
  • To this, add the ice water and mix. Next, pour in an additional tablespoon or 2 of ice water as needed. You don't want the dough to be wet, but hydrated.
  • Knead a couple of times to finish the dough. Divide it in half and form disks. Wrap each disk in plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
  • This will hold in the fridge for up to 3 days, or place the wrapped disks in freezer-safe bags and it will hold for up to 3 months.
