Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• 16 apples - peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
• 2 (8.5 ounce) boxes apple crisp mix (such as Concord Foods)
• 0.5 cup butter
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup shortening
• 0.5 cup water
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 0.25 cup cold water

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine 2 1/2 cups flour and salt in a large bowl. Cut 1/2 cup butter and shortening into flour until the mixture resembles crumbs.

Step 2

Mix egg, water, and white vinegar together in a separate bowl; pour in the crumb mixture and blend with a fork to form a dough ball. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.

Step 3

Melt 1/2 cup butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Blend 1/4 cup flour into the melted butter. Stir water and brown sugar into the butter mixture until smooth; remove from heat.

Step 4

Roll chilled dough into a large rectangle on a flat surface dusted with flour; press into the bottom of an aluminum foil roasting pan and up the sides about an inch or more.

Step 5

Dump the sliced apples onto the crust and gently spread into an even layer. Drizzle the butter mixture over the apples.

Step 6

Pour apple crisp mix into a bowl. Cut 1/2 cup butter into the mix; scatter over the apples.

Step 7

Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 1 hour.
