How to Make Apple Pan Dowdy

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large bowl, combine the peeled, cored, and sliced apples, brown sugar, molasses, raisins, chopped nuts, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. Toss gently to coat.
3. Pour the apple mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, salt, and cold butter. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
5. Gradually add ice water, a tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
6. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface and place it over the apple filling. Trim and crimp the edges.
7. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
8. Bake for 60-80 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover loosely with foil.
9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional).
