Apple Pie with Cheesy Rustic Crust
Ingredients
  • 1 pound lard
  • 5 cups flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp vinegar in water
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1 egg, well beaten
Instructions
  1. Mix dry ingredients together and cut into lard.
  2. Mix vinegar, water, egg and beat until fluffy.
  3. Blend together until dough starts to stick together nicely – sometimes I don’t use all the water, but if you did, I don’t think it would make a difference.
  4. Form into 5 or 6 discs and chill for 1/2 hour.
  5. Roll out the barrel, er dough, and make your pies!!
  6. **This dough will freeze beautifully (forever actually). Just take it out and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before rolling it.
Notes
*Remember to add about 1 cup grated cheddar cheese to the dough and to sprinkle grated cheddar cheese on top of the apples before covering with the crust. Chewy, cheesy, goodness!
