    2 c All-purpose flour

    1/4 c Milk

    Set oven @ 450ºF/230ºC.

    For crust, combine flour and salt in mixing bowl.
    Cut in shortening with pastry blender or 2 knives
    until mixture is uniform. Add water; toss lightly
    with a fork until dough forms a ball. Divide dough
    into 2 parts.

    On lightly floured surface,roll bottom crust into
    circle 1/8" thick and about 1 1/2" larger than
    inverted 9" pie plate. Gently, ease dough into pie
    plate, being careful not to stretch dough.Trim edge
    even with pie plate.

    For apple filling: Combine all ingredients in mixing
    bowl. Stir until mixed well. Spoon into unbaked pie
    crust.

    Use remaining half of dough to roll top crust, as
    instructed for bottom crust. Lift onto filled pie.

    Trim 1/2" beyond edge of pie plate. Fold top edge
    under bottom crust; flute as desired. Cut slits or
    design in top crust to allow steam to escape.

    Brush top crust with milk; sprinkle with white sugar.
    Bake @ 450ºF/230ºC for 20 minutes.

    Reduce heat to 350ºF/175ºC; bake an additional 25
    to 30 min or until crust is golden brown.

    Cool and serve.
