Instructions:
Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add cold water and knead until a ball forms. Divide the dough into two portions, wrap each in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, flour, and lemon juice until well combined.
Roll Out the Dough: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 10×15-inch pan. Roll out one disk of dough and transfer it to the prepared pan.
Add the Filling: Spread the apple filling evenly over the dough in the pan.
Roll Out the Top Crust: Roll out the second disk of dough and place it over the apple filling. Seal the edges by crimping them together. Brush the top with the beaten egg and cut slits in the crust for ventilation.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Cool and Serve: Let the apple slices cool in the pan before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
