In a bowl, sift the dry ingredients for the pie crust.
Cut in the butter until it becomes pea-sized pieces.
Mix in the water, a tablespoon at a time until it becomes a cohesive dough.
Divide into 2, and wrap in plastic wrap, using it to compress the dough into a disc.
Chill for at least 4 hours.
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Roll the pie dough until it becomes a 12 inch circle on a floured surface.
Place into a 9-inch glass pie dish, and lightly press into the sides.
Dock the bottom of the crust using a fork.
Chill while preparing the filling.
Roll the other pie crust, and set aside.
In a bowl, mix all the ingredients for the filling until incorporated.
Brush the inside of the pie crust with egg white.
Place all the apples into the pie dish, and evenly spread.
Place the other crust over the top, and cut off the excess dough from the side.
Fold over edge of the crust, and crimp.
Brush the top of the pie dough with egg wash, and cut 4-8 slits in the center of the crust.
Bake for 40-45 minutes until the crust is browned, rotating halfway. Cover the crust with aluminum foil, (if it browns too quickly).
Cool for at least 1 hour at room temperature before slicing.
Slice into 8-10 slices.
Enjoy!
