INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Make PATE BRISEE: Combine the flour, salt, and sugar in food
processor. Add butter; process until mixture resembles coarse meal,
about 8 to 10 seconds. For hand method, place dry ingredients in  large
bowl. Add butter; blend with pastry cutter until mixture  resembles
coarse meal. Add ice water in a slow steady stream through  feed tube
of food processor with machine running, until the dough  holds together
for no longer than 30 seconds. For hand method, mix  dough with a
wooden spoon, adding water until dough just holds  together. Turn dough
onto piece of plastic wrap. Press into flat  circle, or rectangle
depending on what shape you intend to roll out  pastry to. Wrap in
plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour. May  be frozen, double
wrapped in plastic, for several months. (Makes  enough dough for two
9-inch pie crusts). Heat oven to 400 degrees. On  a lightly floured
surface, roll half pate brisee into a 12-inch  circle. Fit pastry into
an 9-inch glass pie plate; trim dough evenly  along edge. Refrigerate
15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl,  combine mincemeat filling,
grated apple, brandy, and lemon zest.  Transfer filling into the
chilled pie crust. On a lightly floured  surface, roll out remaining
half of pate brisee to a 12-inch circle.  Transfer to pie plate. Trim
dough evenly along edge and just press to  seal edges. Cut small slits
in pastry with the tip of a paring knife,  about 3/4-inch apart. Place
on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake  for 15 minutes. Reduce the
temperature to 350 degrees, and bake until  the crust is golden brown
and the center bubbles, about 45 to 50  minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
