Push to side of bowl. Repeat till all is moistened. Divide dough in half and form into balls. On a lightly floured surface flatten dough with hands. Roll dough from center to edge, forming acircle about 12 inches in diameter. Wrap pastry around rolling pin. Unroll onto a 9-inch pie plate. Ease pastry into pie plate, being careful not to stretch pastry. Fit into pie plate. Trim pastry even with rim. For top crust, roll out remaining dough. Cut slits for excape of steam.

For Pie:
If apples lack tartness, springkle with 1 tablespoon lemon juice, if desired. Combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutget. (For a very juicy pie, omit the flour.)

Sprinkle some sugar atop, if desired. Cover edge of pie with foil. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil; bake for 20 to 25 minutes more or till crust is golden. Cool.
