Combine 1/4 cup flour and ice water, stirring with a wire whisk until
well blended; set aside. Combine remaining 3/4
cup flour, 1 teaspoon sugar, and salt in a bowl; cut in shortening
with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse
meal. Add ice water mixture; toss with a fork until dry ingredients
are mositened. Gently press into a 4-inch circle on
heavy-duty plastic wrap; cover with additional plastic wrap.
Roll pastry, still covered, into an 11-inch circle. Freeze for at
least 10 minutes. Remove bottom sheet of plastic wrap
from pastry; fit pastry into a 9-inch pieplate coated with cooking
spray, and remove top sheet of plastic \wrap. Flute
edges decoratively. Spoon apple mixture into pastry shell. Cover with
aluminum foil, and bake at 350 degrees for 45
minutes or until apple mixture is crisp-tender.
Combine 1/2 cup brown sugar and next 3 ingredients; cut in margarine
until mixture is crumbly. Uncover pie, and
sprinkle streusel over apple mixture. Bake, uncovered, an additional
25 minutes. Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1
