Number Of Ingredients 8

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup coarse cornmeal
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
2 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
2-4 tablespoons ice water

Steps:

  • Combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a food processor; pulse several times. Add butter; process until mixture is the consistency of coarse meal, about 7 seconds. With motor running, add yolks and enough ice water so dough comes together. Do not overmix.
  • Divide dough in half; press to flatten into disks. Wrap each in plastic; chill at least 30 minutes or overnight.
