Preparation

Chef’s notes

This is my very favorite pie crust, but if you prefer not to use shortening, try an all-butter pie crust.
Any combination of tart/crisp apples will work in this pie. Suggestions:
Granny Smith, Jonagold, Pink Lady, Fuji, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
The baked pie can be stored at room temperature or refrigerated for up to 2 days.
To freeze an unbaked pie, wrap it securely and bake directly from frozen, allowing more time to bake.
To freeze a fully baked pie, cool completely before wrapping and freezing. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and rewarm in a 350-degree oven.
