Our Apple Pie Recipe
Grandma Carol's Original Apple Pie Recipe
- De Pere, Wisconsin
9" Double Crust Pie
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
2/3 cup, plus 2 tbs. vegetable shortening
4-5 tbs. ice cold water
6 cups thinly sliced Granny Smith apples (or any tart apples)
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 tsp. cinnamon
2 tbs. butter
Preheat oven to 425º
Cut shortening into 2 cups flour and salt with pastry blender until particles are small pea sized. Sprinkle in water, 1 tbs. at a time, and mix with fork until moistened and pastry starts to clean side of bowl. Gather into hands and form a large ball. Divide in half and shape half into round disk on floured surface. Roll out with flour-covered rolling pin - flip dough a few times and add flour as needed to keep from sticking. Do not overwork - or pastry will be tough. Fit into pan and trim to 1/2 - 1 inch overhang. Do the same thing with top crust and cut slits for steam before covering pie filling. Roll top edge over bottom crust edge and make high fluted edge.
Stir together sugar, 1/4 cup flour, cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Add apples into the mixture and toss, then pile into pie shell. Dot with butter. Cover pie crust edge with a thin strip of foil or use a pie shield to prevent overbrowning.
Bake 50 min. Remove foil or shield 15 min. before pie is done.
Let it set after baking.
