List of Ingredients
2 ready-made frozen pie pastry sheets
2 Tbs lemon juice
6 cups peeled, sliced apples
2/3 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground allspice

1/4 tsp ground cloves
3 Tbs all-purpose flour
2 Tbs butter, cut into pieces
Recipe
1 Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Fit one sheet of pie pastry into a deep-dish pie plate. To prevent tearing the pastry, roll sheet around a rolling pin; unroll over pie plate.
2 Combine lemon juice and apples in a large bowl. Add 2/3 cup sugar, salt, allspice, cinnamon, cloves, and flour; toss well.
3 Spread apple mixture over pie crust in dish. Dot with butter. Arrange second pastry sheet over apples. Press to lightly seal edges. Trim overhanging crust.
4 Make 4 slits in top crust; sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees. Bake until filling bubbles, about 30 minutes longer. Let pie cool completely before slicing.
5 VARIATION: For a classic fall dessert, add 1/2 cup golden raisins and 1/3 cup chopped pecans during step 2.
