Whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the cold vegan butter cubes and cut them into the flour using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter still visible.

Drizzle in ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring with a fork after each addition, until the dough just comes together when pressed — it should hold without being sticky or wet. You may need between 4 and 6 tablespoons. Divide the dough in half, flatten each half into a disk, wrap tightly, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
