• Preheat oven to 425°F. Place an oven rack at the lowest possible setting. For the filling: Core the apples. Slice into 3/4-inch chunks. Toss all of the apples with the sugar, tapioca flour, apple butter, citrus juice, salt, and spices. For the streusel: In a medium bowl, combine flour, oats, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Using a pastry blender or fork, cut in the butter until fine crumbs form. Using hands, squeeze together most of the mixture to form large clumps. The topping can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 6 months. Assemble and bake the pie: Pour apple mixture into the pie shell making sure to transfer any residual liquid as well. It will seem very full. Press streusel mixture onto the top. Place the pie on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake the lowest rack of the oven for 50 minutes until the apples are cooked through but not mushy. Remove and cool on a rack at least 4 hours or until almost room temperature.

Add 6 tablespoons ice water and blend just until moist clumps form, adding more ice water by teaspoonfuls if dough is dry. Gather dough into ball. Divide dough in half. Flatten each half into disk. Wrap in plastic and chill at least 3 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled. Soften dough 15 minutes at room temperature before rolling out.
• Butter 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Roll out 1 dough disk on lightly floured work surface to 12- to 13-inch round. Transfer dough to prepared pie dish and press dough onto bottom and up sides of dish, allowing overhang to extend over sides.
