Love the way the kitchen smells while this pie is cooking, but not as much as I love the taste of it :)
Pastry for a two crust pie
1 1/2 tsp. lemon juice
2 Tbsps. flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/8 tsp. salt
7 cups thinly sliced, (peeled) tart apples
Line a 9 inch pie plate with 1/2 of the pastry. In a bowl, combine the lemon juice, flour, both sugars, cinnamon, and the salt. Place 1/2 of the apples into the pie plate turning the sharp edges inward. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the sugar mixture, then the rest of the apples, heaping slightly in the center, then add the rest of the sugar mixture and cover with the other pastry crust (trimming to an inch larger than the pie plate. Fold the edges under making a thick rim on the edge of the pie plate then press with a fork around the edge to seal it. Cut 6 to 8 slots for steam vents in the top crust and brush with aegg wash ( look below ) and sprinkle with sugar, bake at 425* for 50 mins. or until good and brown.
