Angela’s apple pies are wonderful in taste and aroma.
Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Prepare basic pastry for double pie crust. Peel, core and thinly slice apples and toss with lemon juice. In a separate bowl, mix dry ingredients together and add mixture to apples. Gently toss mixture to coat apples. Transfer to prepared crust and dot top with butter. Add top crust and cinch together edges of crust and cut 2-4 small openings in top crust for venting. Bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly. Remove from oven and cool.
To prevent pie crust from over-browning, cover the crust edge with 3-inch strip of aluminum foil. Remove foil during last 15 minutes of baking.
