Zubereitung von Apple Pie
- **Make the Pastry:** In a large bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1 cup shortening using a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle 6 tablespoons ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, into the mixture, gently tossing with a fork after each addition until the dough just comes together.
- Divide the dough in half, form each half into a ball, and flatten slightly.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one ball of dough into a 12-inch circle.
- Carefully transfer the pastry to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
- **Prepare the Apple Filling:** In a large bowl, combine 6 cups peeled, cored, and sliced apples (about 6 medium), ¾ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup packed brown sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon ground allspice.
- Gently toss to coat the apples evenly. Add 1/4 cup raisins or chopped walnuts, if desired.
- Pour the apple filling into the pastry-lined pie plate.
- Roll out the remaining dough into a 12-inch circle. Cut slits to allow steam to escape.
- Place the top crust over the filling. Trim and crimp the edges. Fold the top pastry under the bottom pastry and crimp.
- To prevent over-browning, cover the edges of the pie with foil.
- Bake in a preheated 375°F (190°C) oven for 25 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for another 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
