Prepare crust: Put flour and salt into a bowl. Add shortening and cut into the flour mixture using a pastry blender. The flour mixture should be in pea-size granules before you add the water. Add water and mix well to form a ball of dough. Knead the dough gently using excess flour to keep it from getting sticky. Roll out with a rolling pin on a floured surface. Place in a 9½" pie plate and crimp edges.  Set aside.

Prepare apple mixture: Mix together all ingredients and pour into the crust.

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.

4

Prepare Streusel Topping: Mix brown sugar and flour together until soft. Add partially melted butter and mix with your fingers. When you get nice size bits of streusel topping, sprinkle it on the pie. Add a little extra butter in little chunks on top.

Bake 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown.
