Instruction
Pie Dough: Mix together ingredients to form dough. Form two equal sized disks. Chill dough for 1 hour. Spray pie tin, roll out one disk of dough and place in a 10-inch lightly greased pie pan.
Apple Pie Filling: Mix together all ingredients until well combined.
Fill the pie pan with dough with the apple mixture. Mound apples in the center. Roll out the second dough disk and cover the top of the pie. Crimp your edges and make small cuts on top of the pie for venting steam.
Bake in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes to an hour. Pie should be brown and bubbly.
