1. Cut frozen butter or shortening into 1/2 ” cubes and set aside. In small bowl, add ice cubes to water; set aside. In large bowl or food processor combine flour and salt. Cut in the extra cold butter and shortening into flour mixture using S-blade of food processor, or dough blender if mixing by hand; combine until small pieces of butter remain. Slowly add about 5 tablespoons of ice water, using wooden spoon or processor to combine. Add apple cider vinegar and continue adding ice water until dough comes together. I used 12 tablespoons of water for the whole wheat pastry flour dough. Shape dough into round disc, then cut in half and reshape into disc; wrap the discs tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper and place back in fridge for 2 hours before rolling out. You must chill the dough for 2 hours to prevent crust from falling.
2. Peel and core apples, cut down half of apple then place flat side down and cut into 1/4″ slices. I stored my peeled apples in a bowl of lemon water, then continued with slicing. You will need about 6 cups of apples. Toss with brown sugar, tapioca flour or cornstarch, cinnamon, vanilla and lemon juice; set aside for 20-3o minutes. Preheat oven to 400ºF while the apples sit.
3. Sprinkle flour on flat surface and place one disc down and sprinkle top of disc as well. (Leave other disc in fridge for now.) Gently roll out pie dough, doing quarter turns after each roll (sprinkling more flour as necessary) until you have a 12″ circle. Fold the pie dough in half, then again creating a triangle to move the dough to the pie dish. Unfold the dough and press into pie plate and up sides. Crimp sides of dough with knuckle and pinch with forefinger and thumb.
4. Take apple slices and start placing round side of apple against edge of pie plate, working your way in with one layer then adding the next layer. Spoon about 2 tablespoon of the leftover juices over filling.

WebApr 23, 2019 · Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes. Then turn down the heat to 350 degrees and bake for 35-45 minutes until the apples are soft. …

1. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
2. Add flour into a large bowl. Then add in 1 cup of lard broken up into chunks. Then use a fork or pastry cutter and start mixing the lard into the flour. Mix it together just long enough that it starts to incorporate and create a crumbly mixture.You don't want to overdo it and it's okay if there are still some big chunks of lard.
3. Start adding in ice water to your dough mixture. Start with about 1/3 of a cup and gently start mixing it into the dough.If your dough still seems dry and is not sticking together, add in a tablespoon of water more at a time until your dough comes together.During this phase keep in mind that less is better. If you over mix the dough that is what creates a tough crust.
4. Once your dough has come together, split the dough into two portions. One being bigger than the other.The larger portion will be for the bottom crust and the smaller portion will be for the top crust.
