Arkansas Black Apple Pie

For pie dough, in large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add butter and mix with a fork until dough becomes crumbly. Slowly add water, 1 tablespoon at a time; mix with fork until dough holds together and is moist.

Form dough into 2 balls. Wrap in plastic and chill for at least 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425 F. For filling, in large bowl, combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt and apples. Toss to coat apples with mixture; sprinkle evenly with lemon juice and scatter butter evenly among apple mixture.

Roll out dough into two separate circles and place one in bottom of 9-inch pie pan. Spoon filling into pan and cover with remaining dough in a lattice patern.

Bake in preheated 425 F. oven 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 F; bake 1 hour longer or until filling is bubbly. Remove from oven and let cool for 1 hour before serving.
