1/2 ts Salt
1/2 c Shortening
5 tb ICE Water
8 c Apples [peeled & sliced]

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
To make the pie: 1) Combine the first measure of flour, salt and
shortening using a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse
crumbs, then stir in the water a little at a time, using a fork, and
form the dough into a ball.
2) Roll out the pastry dough on a lightly floured board. Roll to an
11" or 12" diameter and fit into a 9" pie pan fluting the edges.
3) Combine the sugar, the second measure of flour, the cinnamon, the
nutmeg and the lemon juice in a large bowl then toss the apple slices
in the mixture and arrange them in the pie crust.
To make the topping: 4) Combine the sugar and flour in a bowl and cut
in the butter using a pastry cutter then sprinkle the topping over
the apple filling.
5) Place the pie in the LARGE paper bag and place the paper bag on a
baking sheet and loosely fold the open end of the bag under. Bake
until the apples are tender (50-60 minutes).
6) Carefully remove the pie from the bag ~ CAUTION: WATCH OUT FOR THE
STEAM COMING OUT OF THE BAG!
7) Serve warm with generous portions of vanilla ice cream.
