Ingredients

Enough apples for a well-filled pie (I use a mixture of Granny Smith and Northern Spys when I find them or just Granny Smiths -- usually 5-8 apples, depending on size.
1/2 C granulated sugar
1/2 C light brown sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1-2 T butter

Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 425.
Combine sugars, spices and salt in a small bowl.
Line pie plate with pastry, allowing 1/2 inch overhang. Prepare apples by washing, peeling and coring. Slice thin. Layer slices all over the pastry to make a layer on the bottom. Sprinkle with one third of the sugar mixture, layer more apple slices, sprinkle with one third of the sugar mixture, layer remaining apple slices, mounding in the center. Sprinkle with remaining sugar mixture. Dot the top with bits of butter.
Lay top pastry over the filling. Bring edge of lower pastry up over the top edge and fold together. Flute the edge. Cover with a pie shield and place on a cookie sheet or special pie baking sheet. Cut four vents in the top or create a fun design.
Bake at 425 for 40 minutes, then reduce temperature to 325 for 20 minutes or longer (until sharp knife carefully inserted in one of the vents goes easily into soft apples).
If crust is getting too brown during baking, cover loosely with foil.
