2 1/2 c. unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 c. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1/2 c. chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/3 c. chilled solid vegetable shortening
7 tbsp. sour cream

FILLING:

8 apples (approx. - Macs & Cortlands, peeled, cored & cut into chunks)
2/3 c. sugar
1/4 c. flour

1. Prepare crust by mixing flour, sugar and salt in food processor. Add butter and shortening until mixed to a coarse meal. Add sour cream until dough forms. Do not overmix. Turn out dough onto a floured surface. Divide in half. Flatten 1/2 into a dish. Roll out and invert dough into 9 x 13 inch pie plate.

2. Prepare filling by tossing ingredients in bowl. Mound filling in pie dish.

3. Roll out second half of dough and cover filling. Pinch edges of dough to seal. Trim or fold under for extra crust. Cut 5 slashes in top for steam to escape. Brush top with milk and sprinkle with sugar. Bake 1 hour in preheated 400 degree oven until golden brown. Cover top with foil if getting too brown.
