PASTRY
FILLING
SYRUP
In a bowl, combine flour and salt; cut in shortening until the mixture
resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle with water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and
toss with a fork until dough can be formed into a ball. Divide dough into
four parts. On a lightly floured surface, roll one part to fit the bottom
of an ungreased 13x9x2" baking dish. Place in dish; top with a third of the
apple. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle a third over apples. Repeat
layers of pastry, apples and cinnamon-sugar twice. Roll out remaining dough
to fit top of dish and place on top. Using a sharp knife, cut 2 inch slits
through all layers at once. For syrup bring water and sugar to a boil. Cook
and stir until sugar is dissolved. Pour over top crust. Bake at 400 F. for
35-40 minutes or until browned and bubbly. Serve warm with whipped topping
or ice cream if desired. Garnish with mint if desired.
Yield: 12 servings.
