Rustic Apple Pie

I've been asked to share the recipe to this Beaut! It comes from the most delicious, and probably most dangerous cookbook you will ever own in your entire life- the one and only PW. (Pioneer Woman- Ree Drummond) She's a genius. So here you go, because I love you so! ^

Flat Rustic Apple Pie
(recipe makes 2 pies)

5 peeled and sliced granny smith apples
2 Tb flour
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c brwn sugar
1/4 t salt
1 recipe of perfect pie crust (recipe below)
6 Tb butter

Preheat oven to 375.
In large bowl stir together, apples, flour, lemon juice, sugars, and salt. Set aside.
Roll out pie crusts into large circle, place half the apple mixture on one crust, and half on the other crust. Fold edges over so it cover about 2-3 in of the apples mixture. Dot the top of the pie with chunks of butter. Bake for 30-40 mins. Allow to cool then slice it into wedges like a pizza and enjoy!!

Perfect Pie Crust
(makes two 9 in pie crusts)

3 cups flour
1 t salt
1 1/2 c shortening
1 egg
5 Tb cold water
1 Tb vinegar

Combine flour and salt, add shortening and using a pastry cutter cut it into the flour till it resembles tiny pebbles. Lightly beat the egg with a fork and add it to the mixture. Next, add the cold water and vinegar. Stir mixture together until it's just combined. Now your ready to roll it out.
