4. Roll 1/2 pie dough to 1/8 inch thick. Place in bottom of a 9" pie pan. Trim outer edges to 1/2" over the pan edges.
5. Place apples in a pie shell along with any accumulated juices. Roll top crust to 1/8 inch thick. Make vents for steam. Lay top crust over apples and trim even with bottom crust.
