Apple pie is a classic American dessert that is beloved by many. This recipe is a twist on the traditional version, with a whole wheat crust and a touch of lemon juice in the filling to brighten the flavors. The crust is made with vegetable oil instead of butter, making it a slightly healthier option. Serve this pie warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate comfort food experience.

Instructions

1.In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt.
2.Mix in the vegetable oil and milk until a soft dough forms.
3.Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
4.Roll out 2/3 of the dough on a floured work surface and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish.
5.In a separate bowl, toss the chopped apples with lemon juice, white sugar, and cinnamon.
6.Spoon the apple mixture into the prepared crust.
7.Dot the top of the filling with butter.
8.Roll out the remaining dough and place it on top of the apples. Trim the edges and crimp to seal.
9.Cut several slits into the top crust to vent.
10.Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
