Add the flour and salt to a food processor fitted with a metal blade and process for 10 seconds. Remove the lid and add butter and olive oil; pulse about 10 times or until a coarse meal forms. Stir the maple syrup into 1/4 cup of the ice water. Pour water into the processor and pulse until coarsely mixed. The dough should hold together when pinched.

Gather the dough together into a ball and press into a flat disk; wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
