Apple Pot Pie

DIRECTIONS

• Combine the flour and salt; cut in the shortening.
• Add enough water to make a stiff dough.
• Roll the dough out thinly - like noodle dough; cut into 2-inch squares.
• Arrange alternate layers of apples and dough in a heavy-gauge pot, sprinkling each layer of apples generously with sugar to sweeten and cinnamon.
• Adjust the amount of sugar you use according to the tartness of the apples.
• Dot the top layer of pastry squares with butter.
• Pour in the boiling water and cover the pot.
• Cook over low heat for 25 to 30 minutes or until the apples are tender.
• Serve hot or cold with cream.
• Makes 6 servings.
