Tips:

For a crispy crust, use a combination of butter and shortening in your pie dough. The butter will add flavor, while the shortening will help the crust hold its shape.
Use a sharp knife to slice your apples and dates. This will help prevent them from browning.
To prevent the filling from leaking out of your pie, brush the edges of the crust with egg white before adding the filling.
Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help the crust cook evenly.
Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the filling to set.
