1/8 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon (see note)

Combine dry ingredients and mix with apples and raisins. Pour into bottom crust. Sprinkle with orange juice and dot with butter. Add top crust; flute edges and cut steam vents. Bake at 400 degrees about 40 minutes or until crust is browned. Cool before frosting or for a shiny glaze, frost while hot.

Note: I also add a sprinkle of nutmeg and allspice.
