APPLE PIE

One bite, and Grandma was right. If you want to learn how to make homemade apple pie filling, this is really the only recipe you need. -Maggie Greene, Granite Falls, Washington

Steps:
- In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the flour, salt, and sugar. Add butter and pulse until coarse, pea-size crumbs appear, about 10 seconds. With the machine running, add vinegar and ¼ cup ice-cold water and process until the dough just holds together, about 30 seconds. Squeeze a small amount of dough between your fingers and if it is very crumbly, add more ice water, 1 Tbsp. at a time (2 Tbsp. maximum). Do not over process.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and push together into a rough ball. Knead a few times to combine, then divide into two equal balls. Flatten each ball into a disk with smooth edges (no cracks), cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to overnight. Do ahead: Dough can also be frozen for up to 3 months; thaw before using. Editor's note: This recipe was originally published in November 2014 as Our Favorite Pie Dough.
