    List of Ingredients

    4 cups all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1 cup shortening
    4 egg yolks
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    8 to 10 tablespoons cold water

    FILLING:
    7 cups finely chopped peeled apples
    2 cups sugar
    1/4 cup all-purpose flour
    2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    Dash ground nutmeg

    GLAZE:
    1 cup confectioners’ sugar
    1 tablespoon milk
    1 tablespoon lemon juice

    Recipe

    In a large bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, whisk egg yolks, lemon juice and water; gradually add to flour mixture, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Divide in half. Chill for 30 minutes.

    Roll out one portion of dough between two large sheets of waxed paper into a 17-in. x 12-in. rectangle. Transfer to an ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Press pastry onto the bottom and up the sides of pan; trim pastry even with top edge.

    In a bowl, toss the apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg; spread over crust. Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pan; place over filling. Trim edges; brush edges between pastry with water or milk; pinch to seal. Cut slits in top. Bake at 375° for 45-50 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Combine glaze ingredients until smooth; drizzle over bars before cutting. Yield: about 2 dozen.
