Directions: |
Directions:Cut shortening into 3 cups flour and salt with two knives until pieces are about the size of peas. Do not stir. Now stir in enough water to make a dough that holds together. Divide in half. Roll out 2 crusts on a floured surface. Place one crust in bottom of 10” pie pan.
Peel, core and thinly slice apples. Mix with 1/2 cup flour, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well and place in pan with crust. Place dots of butter over apples. Spread milk on edge of crust and place 2nd crust on top. Press together lightly to seal.. Cut edges so they are about 1/2" over the pie pan edge. Roll crust turning under edges. Seal crust edges and decorate by crimping with a fork, or flute with your fingers. Slit top crust with 5 slits. Brush crust with milk. Put 1 macaroni sticking out in each slit to prevent boil overs. Place foil on bottom of oven. Preheat oven to 450°. Cook pie 15 minutes. Turn down oven to 350° and continue baking for 1 hour or until knife goes through apples easily. Remove macaroni and discard. Cool or serve warm with ice cream. |
