Ingredients
For the crust: - 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour - 1/2 teaspoon salt - 1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces - 1/4 cup vegetable shortening, chilled and cut into small pieces - 4-6 tablespoons ice water For the filling: - 5 cups sliced apples (about 6 medium-sized apples) - 1/4 cup all-purpose flour - 1/2 cup granulated sugar - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon - 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg - 1/4 teaspoon salt - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Equipment

Method
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). 2. To make the crust, combine the flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Add the chilled butter and shortening, and use a pastry cutter or fork to cut the butter and shortening into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. 3. Gradually add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. 4. Gather the dough into a ball and roll it out on a floured surface until it is large enough to fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer the dough to the pie dish and trim the edges. 5. To make the filling, combine the sliced apples, flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a mixing bowl. Toss to coat the apples evenly. 6. Pour the apple mixture into the prepared pie crust and dot with small pieces of butter. 7. Bake the pie for 45 minutes to an hour, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. 8. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool before serving.
