Original Recipe Yield 1 - 10x15 inch pie
 

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 egg yolks, beaten
  • 4 tablespoons water
  •  
  • 8 apples - peeled, cored and cut into thin wedges
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 3/4 cups white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  •  
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup butter

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C.) In a large bowl, combine flour sugar, salt and baking powder. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix egg yolk and water together and mix into flour until it forms a ball. Roll out to fit the bottom of a 10x15 inch pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine apples, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons flour, sugar and cinnamon. Pour filling into pie crust and dot with 2 tablespoons butter.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 2/3 cup brown sugar and 2/3 cup butter. Cut in the butter until crumbly, then sprinkle over apples.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until topping is golden brown.
