Rating: Unrated

  • Combine apples with remaining ingredients and pour into prepared pie pan.

  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll remaining pastry disk into a 12-in. circle. Carefully place pastry over fruit and gently fold under edge of bottom crust, flush with rim of pan. Flute edge of pastry; or with a fork, press crusts together to seal. With a sharp knife, cut a few decorative steam holes in top crust.

  • Bake until crust is browned and filling is bubbling, about 1 hour. Let cool at least 2 1/2 hours.
