In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and salt until evenly combined.
Pour the canola oil into the bowl and mix with a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently with a fork after each addition until the dough starts to come together. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and gently knead it just until it forms a cohesive ball. Do not overwork, as this can make the pastry tough.
Flatten the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill before rolling out.
Once chilled, lightly flour your work surface and rolling pin. Roll out the pastry dough to your desired thickness and use it for pies, tarts, or quiches as needed.
If baking, follow the specific recipe instructions for your chosen dish, as baking time will vary depending on the filling and preparation.
