When using the paper bag in the oven, it must be placed at least one extra shelf away from the heating element. The bag can’t have ink on it or it will catch fire. Also, the paper clips should be metal, not color coated. It is worth the extra attention to detail as this pie is the best apple pie I have ever had – anywhere.
Serves 6-8.
What you Need:
Next:
1. Toss apples with fresh lemon juice in a ceramic or glass bowl (metal will speed oxidation of the apples, turning them brown).
2. Arrange on bottom pie crust.
3. In small bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour and spices. Mix well. Sprinkle over apples.
4. Combine remaining 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup flour.
5. Cut chilled butter into mixture, forming a coarse crumble.
6. Sprinkle mixture over apples.
7. Carefully slide pie into large plain brown bag. Fold the bag opening over three times and secure it with metal paper clips.
8. Place on a baking sheet. Bake 1 hour in preheated 425-degree oven.
9. Serve warm with ice cream.

Next:
1. In a food processor with a steel blade, combine flour, sugar and salt.
2. Cut chilled butter into chilled flour mixture. Pulse 10 times.
3. Add water slowly and pulse until dough comes together.
4. Carefully remove dough ball from processor bowl, wrap loosely in wax paper (handle dough as little as possible to help dough maintain chilled temperature) and chill in the freezer for 10-15 minutes or in the refrigerator for up to five days.
5. Generously flour your baking surface and roll out chilled pie dough.
