1. Make crust: Pulse whole-wheat pastry flour, all-purpose flour, maple sugar and salt in food processor. Add butter, and process until the butter is cut in and the mixture resembles coarse meal. Open lid, drizzle on oil and pulse to combine. Open lid and drizzle on ½ cup ice water. Process until the mixture just comes together. If the mixture seems dry or does not come together as a ball, try squeezing a handful of the crumbs together. If it still won’t come together, add up to ¼ cup more ice water. Divide dough in half and form into two disks, wrap in plastic and refrigerate until firm and chilled, at least 1 hour.
2. Arrange oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment.
3. Make Filling: Toss Macintosh apples, firm apples, maple syrup, lemon juice, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a large bowl.
4. Lightly dust work surface with flour. Roll one dough disk out to a circle, about 14-inches across. Transfer to a 9-inch deep dish pie plate. Press dough gently into corners of the pie plate. Add apple filling to the pie shell, arranging so they are as compact as possible. Roll the second dough disk out to a circle, about 12 inches across. Lay over the apple filling. Roll edges under, and crimp edges to make fluted edge. Brush egg yolk over the crust. Sprinkle with turbinado. Cut five 1-inch long steam vents in the top of the pie.

Perfect Apple Pie Once Upon a Chef

1. Combine the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Pulse a few times to combine. Add the pieces of butter and shortening and pulse until the mixture is crumbly with lots of pea and chickpea-size clumps of butter and shortening within.
2. Add the water and pulse until the mixture is evenly moistened and very crumbly. Dump the dough crumbles onto a work surface and divide into two piles, with one pile about 15% bigger than the other (13 oz and 11.5 oz). Make two balls of dough and pat each one into a 5-inch disc. Wrap the discs in plastic and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes.
3. Take the larger disc of dough out of the refrigerator. Dust your work surface lightly with flour and place the dough on top; sprinkle a little flour over the dough. Use your hands to quickly knead the dough into a soft and malleable disc (don’t overwork it; you want it just supple enough to roll).
4. Roll the dough, adding more flour as necessary under and on top of the dough so it doesn't stick, into a 13-in circle. Carefully drape the dough over the rolling pin and transfer it to a 9-in deep-dish pie pan (it should be at least 1-1/2 in deep). Gently fit the dough into the pan, easing it inwards rather than stretching it outwards. Trim the edges to 1/2 inch beyond the lip of the pie pan. Turn the edges under to create a rim on the crust. Press the rim against the lip of the pan, forming it into an even edge. Use any scraps to patch in any tears or thin areas. Place the crust in the refrigerator for 30 minutes while you heat the oven.
