Ingredients

    12 tsp margerine or butter (cut into small pieces)
    1/4 cup ice water

    1 tsp cinnamon
    1/2 cup splenda (for baking)
    1/4 tsp salt (pinch)

    2 tbsp flour

Servings: 8 (one 9-inch pie)

CRUST - (2/9-INCH PIE SHELLS)
1. Sift flour and salt together over a bowl containing the diced margerine. Using your hands, or two forks, break up the margerine into the flour until the flour assumes the color of th margerine. There should still be some nuggets of unmixed margerine.

2. Sprinkle in most of the ice water and work in quickly with your hands until dough clumps together. Do not overmix. Separate dough into 2 balls, wrap separately, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before rolling out.

APPLE PIE -

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, sprinkle cinnamon, sugar, and salt over apples. Fold gently to mix and set aside.

2. With a lightly floured rolling pin, roll half of the dough into approximately a 12-inch circle, about 1/8 -inch thick. Carefully fold dough over the rolling pin for easy transfer and position into 9-inch pie pan.

3. Fill with apple mixture, mounding slightly in the center. Sprinkle apples with the flour. Repeat rolling with second half of dough and place carefully on top of apples.

4. Using your fingers or a pastry brush, dip in water and lightly brush the edge of the crust and, between the two layers, press the top layer down to seal as you go. Trim the crust with a sharp knife, set side the scraps of dough. Flute the edges of the pie crust by lifting and pinching between your thumb and first 2 fingers, moving around the pie. Slit the top of the crust in the center.

5. Bake for 45 minutes, until the filling is bubbly and crust is golden brown. Cool on rack. Serve warm or cold.
