For the crust:

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and white sugar.
  2. Add butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together.
  4. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour.

For the filling:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together apples, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the mixture turns golden brown.
  4. Add the apple mixture to the saucepan and stir to coat the apples. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the apples begin to soften.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice. Set aside to cool.

Assembling the pie:

  1. Roll out one disk of dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer the dough to the dish and trim the edges.
  2. Add the apple filling to the pie dish.
  3. Roll out the second disk of dough and cut into strips. Create a lattice design on top of the pie.
  4. Bake for 45-50 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  5. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion

This apple pie is perfect for any occasion, from a family dinner to a holiday feast. The combination of white and brown sugar gives the filling a depth of flavor that can't be beat. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a truly decadent dessert.
