Directions:
In a large saucepan, combine apples, 3/4 c. apple juice, sugar, cinnamon & apple pie spice; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Combine cornstarch & remaining apple juice; add to saucepan. Return to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook & stir 1 minute more or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Stir in vanilla. Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.

For crust, combine flour & salt; cut in the butter until mixture is crumbly. Gradually add water, 1 T. at a time; tossing with a fork until dough can be formed into a ball. Divide in half, making one half slightly larger. On a lightly floured surface, roll out larger portion.

Line a 9in. pie plate with bottom pastry; trim even with edge of plate. Add filling. Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pie; place over filling. Trim, seal & flute edges. Cut slits in top.

Bake at 400 for 40-45 minutes or until crust is golden brown & apples are tender. Cool on a wire rack.

Never tried this crust - I always but the pre-made ones, but I bet any homemade one would be better.
