**When making a double crust pie, pour 1/8 cup milk over top crust and sprinkle sugar over. It really adds to the crust
Pie Crust:
1-1/3 Cups Crisco Shortening
3 Cups Flour
1/2 Tsp. Salt
1 Tsp. Baking Powder
1 T. Vinegar
1 Egg
5 T. Cold Water
Use a Pastry Utensil to cut Crisco Shortening, Flour, Salt and Baking Powder in a large bowl.
Mix 1 egg, 1 T. Vinegar, and 5 T. COLD WATER in a small bowl.
***I put crushed ice in a bowl and then put the water in.
Add egg mixture to the flour mixture; using a mixer; mix well.
Shape dough into 2 even disks.
Put dough disks in a food storage bag and refrigerte for at least a half hour. You want the dough disks to be cold before rolling out.
Put a piece of wax paper on a cutting board; put one of the dough disks on wax paper, lightly flour on top of dough disk and rolling pin; roll out dough to fit your pie pan.
Once the dough is rolled out; flip the wax paper over onto pie plate.
Pinch any loose dough together if broken; fit dough in pie plate.
Roll out second dough disk.
Apple Pie Filling:
Sprinkle Brown Sugar over bottom crust of pie crust.
Slice 7 Apples and put in large bowl. Add 3/4 cup sugar, sprinkle cinnamon in to your taste; 1/4 cup flour and 2 T. Blue Bonnet Margarine; mix well.
Put apple mixture over the brown sugar and spread evenly over the bottom crust.
Flip second pie dough disk over apple filling; crimp pie edges.
Pour 1/8 cup milk over top crust and sprinkle sugar over.
Make slits on top crust using a sharp knife.
Bake apple pie in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes to an hour.
