Green Market Apple Pie Food

GREEN APPLE PIE

Steps:

• For pastry, mix flour and salt; cut in shortening.
• Add water 1 tbsp at a time, using only enough to make a workable paste (too little will make it crumbly). This pastry, being exceedingly rich, must be handled deftly.
• Roll out pastry and line pan.
• Make 2 (9 inch) shells.
• Thorough chilling before rolling makes pastry easier to handle.
• For filling, line pie pan with one pastry shell and fill with sliced apples.
• Mix and sift dry ingredients over the apples.
• Add water and lemon juice; dot with butter, then top with secondary pie shell.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until pie filling is done and pie is golden brown.
• If pie crust starts getting too dark before it is done.
• Cover with aluminum foil.
• ENJOY!
