Preparations
- Combine the sugars, flour, and spices in a small bowl and place the mixture separately. Toss apples with lemon juice in a large bowl. Add sugar mixture, toss to coat
- Put a pie plate with bottom crust; trim even with edge and fill with the apple mixture. Dot with butter. Roll remaining crust to match the top of the pie
- Beat egg white until it gets foamy and brush over crust. Sprinkle with sugar and cover the edges loosely with foil
- Bake at 375 F degrees for 25 minutes, after which you remove the foil and bake again until the crust becomes golden brown and filling is bubbly, this usually takes about 20 to 25 minutes longer. Allow cooling before serving.
