Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. The crust:........
  2. Combine dry ingredients in large bowl. Add in butter and shortening
  3. And toss to coat the pieces with flour.
  4. Rub in butter and shortening with your finger tips, dipping the pieces
  5. In flour as you work until the mixture is coarse, sandy and no chunks
  6. Larger than a big pea remain.
  7. Add water and press dough into a ball with the palms of your hands.
  8. Divide into two discs (using a knife) and wrap dough in plastic.
  9. Refrigerate for at least one hour and up to two days.
  10. *Make sure the butter is cold and work it into the flour quickly.
  11. Use ice water, when you're ready to add it, to keep the dough
  12. Colder. Do not make a uniform mixture; you should have bits that
  13. Resemble grains of sand and ones the size of peanuts.
  14. The difference in sizes will help improve the texture of the crust.*
  15. *Only use enough water to bind the dough together. A little extra
  16. Water will make it easier to roll out and handle, but will diminish the
  17. Flakiness of the final product. Refrigerate before rolling.*
  18. For the pie:................
  19. Mix apples, sugar, flour, spices and salt together in large mixing bowl.Stir well and set aside until dough has been rolled out.
  20. Remove one disc of dough from refrigerator. On a large, flat, lightly
  21. Floured surface, roll the disc into a large circle. Turn it frequently and
  22. Use sprinkles of flour as you roll to prevent it from sticking to the
  23. Surface. Keep rolling until the dough will fill the pie dish (check by turning the dish upside down over the dough to see that there is plenty of overlay). Gently fold the crust in half, then in half again. Place in pie dish and gently unfold. Press into place, but do NOT stretch it to fit.
  24. Repeat rolling procedure with second disc of dough.
  25. Fill pie dish with filling and dot filling with reserved butter.
  26. Fold the rolled dough into quarters again and lay top crust on top of
  27. Filling. Pinch edges to seal and don't bother crimping them, as this
  28. Can toughen the edges. Discard any excess dough and cut a few
  29. Steam vents in top crust.
  30. Bake pie at 425F for 10 minutes. Turn oven down to 375F and bake
  31. For 55-60 minutes, until pie is golden and a knife inserted into an
  32. Apple piece (through the steam vent) comes out easily.
  33. Let pie cool for at least 1 1/2 hours before slicing to allow juices to
  34. Thicken.
  35. Serves 8.
