- 1/2 tsp Plus a healthy pinch of salt
- 10 Tbsp. Cool margarine
- 1/4 c. Vegetable shortening
- 3 Tbsp. Water, (up to 4)
- 3 lb Apples, ( about 9 apples) I use Macintosh, but any baking apple will do.
- 2 Tbsp. Lemon juice
- 1 Tbsp. Cornstarch
- 2/3 c. Brown sugar
- 1/3 c. Granulated sugar
- 1 3/4 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp Nutmeg

Directions
- Combine 1 1/2 c. flour and the 1/2 tsp salt. Cut 4 Tbs. of the margarine and the shortening into the dry ingredients till the mix resembles coarse meal. Add in water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, tossing till the dough just holds together. Wrap in plastic and chill at least 30 min.
- Heat the oven to 375 . Peel the apples and cut into thin slices. Toss with the lemon juice, cornstarch, 1/3 c. brown sugar, the granulated sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon and the nutmeg.
- Combine the remaining 1 c. flour, 1/3 c. brown sugar, 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon and healthy pinch of salt. Cut the remaining 6 Tbs of margarine into this mix till crumbly. Add in pecans.
- Roll out the chilled dough on a floured work surface and fit into 9 inch pie pan. Trim and flute the edges. Put in the freezer for 5 min to hard. Fill the pie shell with the apples and sprinkle the crumb mix over the top. Bake till the crust is golden brown and the filling bubbles. 60-70 min. Cover loosely with foil if the topping browns to quickly.
