I put this together for a family get together! This could be made into three 9-inch pies but I put it in one large heavy-duty rectangular (food service) foil pan. It takes 3 sticks of butter in all but this serves 24!

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.
