Third Step: Putting Crust in Pie Pan
Once you have rolled out the dough, wrap it around the rolling pin and unroll it onto your pie pan.
Once you have shaped it to fit the inside of the pan, take a fork and poke holes in the bottom of the crust. This will let the steam out as the pie bakes.

hint: Poking holes in the top of a pie usually keeps it from overflowing, but I find that this pie does better without them
First Step: Baking Apple Pie
Cut long strips of tinfoil and place them around the edge of the pie.
This will prevent the crust's edge from burning while it bakes. You will want to take the tinfoil off about ten minutes before the pie is done. This way, the apple pie will have a golden brown edge.
Bake your pie at 400 degrees for 50-60 minutes.

Second Step: Brush With Egg White
For a glossy effect, brush a small portion of egg white on top of the crust when you remove the tinfoil. Sprinkle a small amount of Cinnamon Sugar over the top of the egg white for a sweet, sugary kick to your pie.
