Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and vegetable oil. Gradually add milk, mixing until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
  3. Divide the dough in half. Pat one half into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the bottom crust.
  4. In a large bowl, toss sliced Macintosh apples with light brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg until evenly coated.
  5. Pour the apple mixture into the prepared pie crust, mounding it slightly in the center.
  6. Roll out the remaining dough on a floured surface. Place it over the apple filling as the top crust.
  7. Trim excess dough from the edges and crimp the edges to seal. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  9. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes.
  10. While the pie cools, whisk together confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, and enough milk to create a thin glaze.
  11. Brush the glaze evenly over the top of the warm pie.
  12. Allow the pie to cool completely on the wire rack before slicing and serving.
