Superb Apple Pie

Megan just had a birthday and requested apple pie for her cake (well she still wanted vanilla cake with peanut butter frosting) so I quickly baked up one from my Sandridge Ward cookbook, this is from Kristen Funes and it is VERY good!

Superb Apple Pie
Filling:
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp nutmeg
4 cups sliced apples
2 Tbsp flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Topping:
1/2 cup flour
1 stick butter
1/2 cup brown sugar

Filling:
Combine sugar, flour, nutmeg, and cinnamon.  Stir in apples and blend thoroughly.  Pour into Pie Shell.
Topping: Combine flour and sugar, cut in butter.  Sprinkle over pie.  Place in brown paper bag; seal (I guess you can staple it shut but I just folded it down real good and left it)  (If you don't have brown paper bag, use one of those turkey cooking bags)  Bake at 350 for 1 1/2 hours (I baked mine at 1 hour and 20 min and it was done!)
Expect wonderful pie!! yum

Crust:
2 cups flour
1 cup crisco butter flavored shortening
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup water
Mix together flour and salt.  Add in the shortening and using your hands crumble it all together until size of peas.  Add water (cold ) and mix together.  roll out size of pie pan
