- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
For the vegetables
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ cup yellow onion, finely diced

Combine the flour and salt in a food processor and pulse twice to mix. Add the cold cubed vegan butter and pulse 8–10 times until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces of butter still visible. Add ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing after each addition, until the dough just comes together and holds when pinched — stop before it becomes smooth or sticky.
