Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

Shortening pie dough: 2 1/2 lb Apples (granny smiths, of co
2 1/3 c Flour -rse)
1/2 ts Salt 1 ts Lemon juice
3/4 c Shortening, cold, cut into p 3 tb Unsalted butter, cut into bi
-eces -s
Pie filling: 1 tb Halfandhalf
14 1/2 tb Sugar Honey spiced whipped cream:
3 tb Flour 3/4 c Heavy cream, well chilled
3/4 ts Cinnamon 1 tb Honey
1/4 ts Nutmeg 1/4 ts Cinnamon
1/4 ts Ginger 1/4 ts Ginger
1/4 ts Salt 1/8 ts Nutmeg
3/4 ts Lemon zest

In a bowl, stir together flour and salt. Add shortening and blend
until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 4-6 Tbsp ice water or
enough to form into soft but not sticky dough, tossing the mixture
with a fork. Form dough into a ball, flatten it slightly, dust with
flour and chill it, wrapped in wax paper, for 1 hour.

Divide dough into 2 pieces, one slightly larger than the other. Chill
the larger piece, wrapped in wax paper. Roll out the other, 1/8-inch
thick on a floured surface, and fit it to a 9-inch pie plate, and
trim the edge leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Chill the pie shell while
making the filling.

In a large bowl, stir together 14 Tbsp sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg,
ginger, salt, and zest. Peel, quarter, and core the apples; slice
thinly, crosswise, and add them to the sugar mixture, tossing to coat
well. Mound the apple mixture in the pie shell, sprinkle with lemon
juice and dot with butter.

Roll out the larger piece of dough to a 13 or 14-inch round on a
floured surface and drape it over the filling. Trim top crust,
leaving a 1-inch overhang. Fold overhang under bottom crust,
pressing the edge to seal it. Crimp the edge decoratively with a
fork. Make slits in the top crust to form steam vents. Brush with
handh and sprinkle with the remaining sugar.

Bake pie in lower third of a preheated 425f oven for 15 minutes,
reduce heat to 375f and bake for 40-45 minutes more, or until filling
is bubbling and crust is golden. Transfer pie to a rack to cool.

In a chilled bowl, beat cream with the honey, cinnamon, and nutmeg
until it holds soft peaks. Transfer to a serving dish.

Serve the pie warm or at room temperature with the Honey Spice Whipped
Cream.
