1 pound tart apples, I use Granny Smith 2-3 apples peeled, cores, and thinly sliced
1/2 cup granulated sugar (reserve 2 tsp. For crust)

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Grate 1 tsp. Of lemon peel and squeeze 2tsp. Of the juice from the lemon. Set aside. Toss the apples with the sugar, flour, spice, lemon peel and juice.
Place the pie crust on a rimless baking sheet lightly dusted with flour. Dust a rolling pin with flour and roll the pastry to a rough 13 inch circle. heap the apples on the pastry, leaving a 2 inch border all around. scatter the butter on the apples. fold the pastry border back over the apples to make an uneven rustic edge of about 1 1/2 inches, leaving the slices in the center exposed. Sprinkle the reserved sugar over the pastry border.
Bake 12 minutes, then reduce the oven temp to 425 degrees and bake until the apples are softened and bubbly and the pastry is golden brown, 12-15 minutes longer.
Serve warm or at room temp the day of the baking.
