• Using a pastry blender, cut in 2/3 cup shortening until pieces are peasize.
• Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of cold water over part of the mixture; gently toss with a fork.
• Push moistened dough to the side of the bowl.
• Repeat moistening dough, using 1 tablespoon cold water at a time, until all the dough is moistened.
• Divide dough in half. Form each half into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, use your hands to slightly flatten 1 dough ball.
• Roll dough from center to edge into a circle about 12 inches in diameter.

• Pour over apple mixture. Fold until combined.
• Transfer to the pastry-lined pie plate. Trim pastry to 1/2 inch beyond edge of pie plate.
• Roll out remaining pastry and cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips. (Or roll out second portion of pastry to form a top crust; cut slits.)
• Weave strips over filling for lattice crust. Press ends of strips into crust rim. Fold bottom pastry over strips; seal and crimp edge.
• Brush pastry with milk and sprinkle with sugar. To prevent overbrowning, cover edge of pie with foil.
• If you like, place the pie on a baking sheet to catch drips.
• Bake the pie in a 375 degree F oven for 25 minutes.
• Remove the foil. Bake the pie for about 30 minutes more or until the top is golden.
