Suggest a better descriptionMake the crust. In a large bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, and salt. Using your hands, toss the butter cubes in the flour mixture, working quickly and pressing the pieces in your thumbs and forefingers into pea sized lumps. Stop once all the bits of butter are no larger than a piece of gravel, it'll look like a coarse meal.
Drizzle in a little ice water in the middle and use your hands to gently toss from the sides and bottom of the bowl. Add a little more ice water and continue to toss (you'll use about 1/4 cup of the ice water). Continue to toss until the dough holds together when pressed into a ball without big crappy cracks. Wrap loosely in plastic and chill in the fridge for about 2 hours.
When it's time to assembly, heat the over to 400ºF. Line a rimmed backing sheet with a silicone mat or parchment.
Core the apples and cut into slices about 1/3 inch thick. In a large bowl, toss the apples, brown sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, cornstarch, cinnamon, ginger and salt.
Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to a circle with an even thickness, about 12 inches in diameter (no need to be overly precise here, we're going for 'rustic'). Patch any cracks in the dough by pinching it back together, or pressing thin scraps, from the edges over any big cracks. Using a rough scraper, wrap the dough around the rolling pin, then gently unfurl onto the prepared sheet.

Arrange the apple slices in single rows, overlapping (like fallen dominoes), leaving about 2 inches of dough overhang on all sides. Fold the dough overhand over the edges of the fruit, using the scraps to mend any tears.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and cream, then brush the crust with this egg wash. Sprinkle the crust all over with the raw sugar. Dot the apples with the remaining cubes of butter. Bake, rotating halfway through, for 35-40 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the apple slices are softened and bubbling.
