Apple Pie
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Mix shortening, flour, and salt together with a fork or a pastry blender until very crumbly. Add as much water as needed to hold together, and mix lightly with a fork.
- Cut ball of dough in half. Roll each half gently on a floured surface to about an inch larger than a 9 inch pan.
- Fold carefully in half, lift over pie pan, and unfold. Press into pan. Dock dough by poking all over with a fork.
- Pour filling into pie crust, making sure apples are evenly spaced. Cover with top crust and crimp the edges of dough together to form a seal.
- Cover edge of pie with aluminum foil to prevent burning. If desired brush top of pie with egg whites to make a browner crust. Place the pie pan on a sturdy cookie sheet so it will be easy to move in and out of the oven.
- Bake for 15 minutes until slightly golden but not brown.
- Set oven to 375 degrees F and continue cooking for 50 minutes.
- Let cool for about 2 hours at room temperature before refrigerating.
