The Best Apple Pie
Ingredients:
5 or 6 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced
1/2 lemon, zested and juiced
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup flour
1 tbsp. arrowroot or cornstarch
1 pinch of salt
1 tsp. allspice
3 tbsp. butter
2 prepared piecrusts, or your favorite recipe
Procedure:
Preheat your oven to 350F.
Put the apple slices in a large bowl and add the zest and the lemon juice. Toss to coat the apples. In a separate bowl, combine the sugar, flour, arrowroot, salt and allspice and mix thoroughly.
Add the sugar mixture to the apples and stir gently to coat.
Place the bottom crust into a 10-inch pie pan and top with apple mixture. Dot the top of the apples with pea size pieces of the butter. Top with second crust and crimp edges.
Make 4 small slices in the crust for steam to escape.
Wrap the edge of the pie with a piece of tin foil that just covers the crimped crust. Place the pie on a cookie sheet. I line mine with foil for easy clean up.
Bake for 45 minutes.
Remove foil and return to oven for about 30 minutes. Juices will run out of the pie usually. I wait until they show signs of thickening.
Place on a wire cooling rack for an hour or so before slicing.

you can either buy refrigerated pie dough or make your own.
here is the recipe for pie dough if you decide to make it
pie dough:
2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cup shortening
6 tbsp water add more water as needed
combine flour an salt together
cut in the shortening with a pastry cutter or use your fingers unitl it looks like bread crumbs
add the 6 tbsp of water, start to combine to form dough add more water as needed
form dough, wrap in plastic wrap and put in the fridge
Filling:
6 jonagold apples peeled, cored and sliced
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 cup of sugar
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 tablespoon butter
1 egg
Salt
preheat to 350
In a large mixing bowl toss the apples with lemon juice. Combine the sugar, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the apples and toss until completely coated. Set mixture aside.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out one ball into a 12-inch circle, and place into a 9-inch pie plate.
Transfer the apple mixture into the pastry lined pie plate. Cut the butter into small cubes and add to the apple mixture. For the top crust, roll out remaining dough, place on top, and seal and flute the edge. Cut slits on top crust to allow steam to escape.
To make the egg wash, crack egg in a small bowl, add a pinch of salt, whisk, and brush on top of the pie. Cover pie with foil to prevent over browning, and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 25 minutes until crust is golden and apples are tender.
Serve warm with ice cream or just plain.

There's a book called Joy of Cooking. Call me simple-minded. Many of my favorite recipes come from that book of basics.
