Good for you - stick with the American theme. I like the apple pie idea. Here is an easy way to make a fail-proof crust.
In a glass 1 cup measuring cup, pour 3/4C vegetable oil. Fill it up to the 1C mark with water. Stir with a fork until
completely emulsified (cloudy).
Pour it into a bowl with 2 cups all purpose flour mixed with 1 teaspoon salt.
Stir it until it comes together in a ball. (for a meat pie try adding grated cheese and a pinch of herbs)
Roll between two sheets of waxed paper.
It will cook just like regular pastry dough. It is quite flaky and is much healthier than those made with solid shortening. It keeps well and will not get soggy from the filling like solid shortening crust.
This much dough will make one bottom crust for a large or deep dish pie. (usually enough for a small 2 crust pie)
If your top crust is iffy, why not try a crumble top. Just cut butter into equal parts of flour and sugar and pat over the top of the apples. To this you can add oats, cinnamon, raisins, chopped nuts, or what ever you can think of.
