10 cups sliced peeled tart apples (about 8 medium)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon butter
1 large egg
1 tablespoon whole milk
Directions
Place flour in a large bowl; cut in shortening until crumbly. In a small bowl, whisk egg, water and vinegar; gradually add to crumb mixture, tossing with a fork until dough holds together when pressed. Shape into a rectangle. Wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes or overnight.
Preheat oven to 375°. For filling, in a large bowl, toss apples with lemon juice. In a small bowl, combine sugars, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg; add to apple mixture and toss to coat. Transfer to a 13x9-in. baking dish; dot with butter.
On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to fit top of pie. Place over filling. Trim and flute edges. In a small bowl, whisk egg with milk; brush over crust. Cut slits in top. Bake 40-50 minutes or until crust is golden brown and apples are tender. Cool on a wire rack.

Big pan, big disappointment. Good idea but I thought the flavor of both the apples and the crust was bland. Definitely not enough sugar and not enough apples. After the apples cooked, the height of the pie was only half that of a traditional pie. You would be better off adapting your favorite pie recipe into a 9x13 version.

Do you need to add nutmeg? Or it is an optional addition.

The pie was so good. I did scale back the nutmeg to 1/4 teaspoon and thought it was perfect.

This pie was delicious! I was going to use a store bought crust but then decided to try this one and I'm so glad I did. It's tender and flaky and oh-so-good. This would be perfect for Thanksgiving or anytime you want to serve a lot of people.

Not a review, just a couple of questions. Can you use the refrigerated pie crusts? Any idea why there is vinegar in this recipe?

I love that you can make this in a 13x9 pan the crust was easy to prepare and it was just delicious - especially with a scoop of ice cream
