CRUNCHY CRUMB APPLE PIE
This is a yummie alternative to an old favorite. The topping is sweet and the apples are a little tart. I posted this with a ready-to-bake pie crust, but I have found a homemade crust is always better! There are tons of apples in this pie but they cook down during baking. This is delicious topped with vanillia ice cream.

Steps:
- For crust:
- Blend first 4 ingredients in processor. Add butter and shortening; using on/off turns, process until butter is reduced to pea-size pieces. Add 5 tablespoons milk and blend until moist clumps form, adding more milk by teaspoonfuls if dough is dry. Gather dough into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap in plastic; chill at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
- for topping:
- Combine first 4 ingredients in medium bowl. Gradually add butter, stirring until moist clumps form. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.)
- For filling:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Stir apples, sugar and lemon juice in large bowl to blend.
- Roll out dough on lightly floured sheet of parchment paper to 14-inch round, occasionally lifting and turning dough to prevent sticking. Transfer dough on parchment to rimless baking sheet. Leaving 2-inch plain border, spread preserves over center of dough. Sprinkle preserves with 3/4 cup topping mixture. Spoon apple mixture over topping, mounding slightly in center; sprinkle apples with remaining topping. Using parchment as aid, fold dough border in over apple filling (border will not cover filling completely). Press border firmly to hold shape and keep in place. Carefully peel back parchment. Brush border generously with glaze.
- Bake pie until crust is set, about 25 minutes. Reduce temperature to 325°F. Bake until apples are tender, covering topping loosely with foil if browning too quickly, about 40 minutes longer. Cool pie on baking sheet at least 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Opt for a variety of sweet apples like Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, and Pink Lady for a perfect balance of flavor and texture in your pie.
- Don't peel the apples; the skin adds color, texture, and nutrients to the pie.
- Make sure your apple slices are uniform in size so that they cook evenly.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the apples so they don't get bruised or crushed.
- If you don't have a pastry blender, you can use two forks or your fingers to work the butter into the flour.
- Don't overmix the dough, as this will make it tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will make it easier to handle and less likely to stick.
- Use a pie plate with a removable bottom for easy slicing and serving.
- Brush the crust with milk or cream before baking to give it a golden brown color.
