THE PERFECT APPLE PIE
I PREPARED SEVERAL PRIZE WINNING APPLE PIES, THEN TWEEKED THEM INTO ONE RECIPE TO ACHIEVE A JUICY, FLAVORFUL PIE. MY SISTER-IN-LAW IS A PROFESSIONAL COOK. I USED HER KITCHEN TO PREPARE THIS FINAL APPLE PIE AND AFTER SERVING HER, SHE EXCLAIMED, "THIS IS THE PERFECT APPLE PIE!" I AGREED.

Steps:
- 1. In large bowl, mix together apples and lemon. Set aside.
- 2. In a medium bowl, soften butter in microwave (about 30 seconds). Stir in flour to form a paste. Add water, white sugar, brown sugar, and spices. *Set aside 1/4 cup of sugar butter mix. Fold the remaining sugar butter mix evenly throughout the apple lemon mix.
- 3. Fill bottom crust with apple mix, mounded slightly in the center to reduce spill over.
- 4. Ball up and re-roll the 2nd pie crust into about 11" circle, then cut it into 1/2" or 3/4" strips for the lattice top. (I use a ruler for a straight edge.) Using the strips, cover apple pie with a lattice work crust.
- 5. *Using a rubber spatula or your fingers, spread the reserved 1/4 cup sugar butter mixture evenly on top of the lattice. The mixture is thick, but will form a thin, sweet crust on the lattice work.
- 6. *Alternate method to sweeten the lattice - Instead of brushing the top lattice crust with the sugar/butter mixture, after the pie has cooked 35-40 minutes, brush lattice with a little milk and sprinkle the top with sugar and cinnamon. (Course ground sugar works great for this.)
- 7. Bake 35-40 minutes in the preheated oven. Loosely cover the pie with tin foil to prevent burning and bake an additional 35-40 minutes.
