Guidelines

• Set the oven’s temperature to 350°F, or 175°C. In a large bowl, stir together 1 ½ cups flour, 1 ½ teaspoons sugar, baking powder, and salt. Once the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, cut in ½ cup butter. After blending the egg yolk and water, add to the flour and stir to make a dough. Roll out the dough to make sure it fits into a 10 by 15-inch pan.
• Put the apples and lemon juice into a big bowl and mix in the 2 tablespoons flour, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and 1 ¾ cups white sugar. Fill pie shell with contents, then drizzle with two tablespoons butter.
• In a medium-sized dish, mix together 1 cup flour, ⅔ cup brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Cut in ⅔ cup butter until crumbly and sprinkle over apples.
• Bake for about one hour, or until the topping is golden brown, in a preheated oven.
