Zubereitung von Jan S French Pastry Apple Slices
- **Crust:**
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- In a large bowl, sift together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 1 tsp salt.
- Cut in 1 cup cold shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, ¼ cup ice water, and 1 tbsp lemon juice.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing lightly with a fork until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the dough into two portions: ⅔ for the bottom crust and ⅓ for the top crust.
- Roll out the larger portion of dough and use it to line a 9x13 inch baking pan, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.
- **Apple Filling:**
- Peel, core, and thinly slice 6 medium apples (about 6 cups).
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples with ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup packed light brown sugar, 2 tsp ground cinnamon, 1 tsp ground nutmeg, and ¼ tsp ground allspice.
- Gently toss to coat the apples evenly.
- Spread the apple mixture evenly over the bottom crust.
- Roll out the remaining dough and place it over the apples. Crimp the edges to seal.
- Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Bake at 450°F (232°C) for 10 minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (191°C) and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Let cool almost completely before frosting.
- **Vanilla Icing:**
- Whisk together 2 cups powdered sugar with 2-4 tablespoons milk until smooth and desired consistency is reached. Add vanilla extract to taste.
- Frost the cooled pastry with the vanilla icing.
