Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup walnuts
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoon cold butter, cut into pieces
  • 3 tablespoon walnut oil
  • 6-7 tablespoon cold water

Cooking Directions

Step 1


Preheat oven to 350°F.

Step 2


Spread walnuts in a pie pan and bake for 5 to 7 minutes, or until fragrant. Let cool.

Step 3


Combine the walnuts, flour, sugar and salt in a food processor; process until the walnuts are finely chopped. Add butter and process until incorporated. Transfer to a large bowl.

Step 4


Drizzle oil over the flour mixture. Use your fingertips to rub the oil into the mixture. One tablespoon at a time, add water and mix with a fork until dough is crumbly and holds together when pressed.

Step 5


Divide dough into 2 pieces, 1 slightly larger than the other, and form each into a disk.
