Steps:
- Cut the cream cheese and butter into 1/2-inch pieces, place in a bowl, and freeze for 15 minutes. Use a coffee or spice grinder or mortar and pestle to grind the psyllium, flax and chia seeds to a fine powder. Transfer to the bowl of a food processor along with the salt, baking powder, and flour. Pulse a few times to combine.
- Add the butter and cream cheese and pulse until the texture of the crumbs resembles sand, about 20 seconds. While pulsing the food processor, add vinegar and then 3 tablespoons ice water. Squeeze a small amount of dough between your fingers; if it is very crumbly, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time (2 tablespoons maximum). Do not over process.
- Turn the dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap, and gather into a ball with your hands. Knead the dough a few times to create a uniform texture. Divide the dough in half and form each piece into a flat disk about 1 inch thick. Wrap each half tightly in plastic and refrigerate until dough is chilled and stiff, at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight). Roll, fill, and bake as desired.
- DO AHEAD: Dough can be frozen for up to 3 months; thaw in refrigerator before using.
