I learned to make this pie when I was a nanny in college. I got some great recipes from that family! This is a great and easy pie crust recipe. And the apple part is so simple...not many ingredients at all! You could change the fruit and keep everything else the same too!
Pie Crust
Source: Theresa Kramer
2 C sifted all purpose flour
4 T cold water (ice cold)
1 tsp. salt
3/4 C butter
Cut flour and salt in bowl. Sift. Cut in 2/3 C butter until fine. Cut in remaining butter. Sprinkle water 1 T at a time over mixture. Mix thoroughly with fork into a dough consistency. Makes 2 crusts (one top and one bottom).
Apple Pie
Peel and slice about 6 apples. Place in pie crust. Add 1 C sugar. Sprinkle cinnamon over top. Top with remaining crust and seal edges. Brush crust with egg wash (1 egg and 1 T water mixed together) and sprinkle with sugar. Pierce the top of the pie a few times to let the steam out. Bake at 450 for 15 minutes or 350 for 45 minutes.
