Combine 2 cups flour, corn
meal and salt. Cut in 1/3 cup
margarine and shortening until
mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in cheese. Add water, 1
tablespoon at a time, stirring
lightly until mixture forms
a ball. Divide dough into 2
parts, 1 slightly larger; shape
each to form ball. Wrap securely
in plastic wrap or wax paper;
chill about 30 minutes. Roll
large ball on lightly floured
surface to form 11-inch circle.
Fit loosely into 9-inch pie
plate; trim. Roll remaining
dough to form 12-inch square.
Cut into 12 x 3/4-inch strips.
Heat oven to 400 F. Combine
remaining 1/3 cup flour, apples,
sugar and cinnamon; spoon into
crust. Dot with remaining 2
tablespoons margarine. Weave
strips atop filling to make
a lattice crust. Trim even with
outer rim of pie plate. Fold
lower crust over strips; seal
and flute. Bake 30 to 35 minutes
or until crust is light golden
brown, shielding edges with
aluminum foil if necessary.
Cool slightly.

To make a double crust pie, roll remaining
dough to form 10-inch circle instead
of cutting strips. Prepare filling as
directed. Place top crust over filling;
trim. Turn edges under; flute. Cut slits
in top crust to allow steam to escape. |
