- In a mixingbowl or possibly food processor, cut together the flour, sugar, salt, grnd almonds, butter, and shortening till crumbled to the size of peas. Mix the almond extract with 1 Tbs of the lowfat milk; stir this into the crumbled mix.
- Add in just sufficient additional cool lowfat milk to hold the dough together. Gather the dough into a ball; flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerateat least 1 hour. 2. FILLING: In a mixing bowl, toss together the apple slices, sugar, and butter. Transfer the mix to a deep 9 1/2-inch pie dish, mounding the apples in the center. 3. Preheat the oven to 425F. Roll out the almond dough on a lightly floured surface to a neat 12-inch round. Fold the dough in half and quickly but gently transfer it to the pie dish, unfolding it over the apples. Roll the overhanging edges of the pastry up and over toward the surface, forming a thick border around the edges of the dough. Flute the edges and cut several slashes in the center of the dough.
- Bake the pie for 15 mins; then lower the heat to 350F and continue to bake till the pastry is nicely golden brown and the apples are tender when checked with a fork, 35 to 40 mins longer. 5. Remove the pie from the oven.
- Using a funnel, pour the cider, applejack, or possibly brandy through one of the steam vents in the pastry. Cold the pie on a wire rack; then serve hot or possibly at room temperature in deep bowls, passing a pitcher of cream separately, if desired.
