List of Ingredients
Pie Crust:
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegetable shortening, room temperature

2 tablespoons cold water
1 tablespoon white vinegar
Apple Filling:

Recipe
Combine the flour and salt in mixing bowl. Cut room temperature
shortening into flour until mixture is uniform and shortening
resembles large peas. Beat egg, water, and vinegar together to blend.
Pour all of the liquid evenly over flour mixture. Stir in with fork
until all of the mixture is moistened. Divide dough in half and shape
each into a ball. Flatten each into a 4-inch circle. Wrap and chill
dough for 15 minutes for easier rolling.
Dust rolling pin and work surface lightly with flour. Roll dough to a
uniform thickness. Roll to a circle about 1-inch larger than upside
down 8-inch pie plate. Carefully place one dough circle into pie
plate and gently press into form of plate. Trim excess dough around
the edge with the back of a knife.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Peel, core, and slice apples. Mix apple slices with sugar, flour, and
cinnamon. Place apple mixture in pie shell. Place second pie crust on
top and form to the edges of the pie plate. Cut slits in the top
crust to allow for steam to release in oven. Bake for approximately
30 to 40 minutes, until pie is fully baked and apples are tender.
