Crumb topping

1-1/4 cups brown sugar
2-1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup oatmeal
1-1/4 cups shortening
cinnamon to taste

Cover with crumb topping and bake at 350 degrees until pie thickens, 25 to 30 minutes. This topping is also good on other fruit pies.

Pie Crust

9” pie pans (4-5 crusts)
4-5 cups flour
3/4 pound or 1-3/4 cups lard or shortening
1 tablespoon sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon vinegar
1/2 cup cold water

Mix flour and sugar, blend in lard or shortening with pastry blender until mixed. Mix egg and water, then add vinegar and add to flour. Mix and divide into 4-5 rounds for 4-5 single-crusted pies or 2 double-crusted pies with, possibly, an extra crust left over to use as you like. Roll the dough out, lay it in the pan and crimp the edges after filling. If you don’t use the rounds right away, they freeze beautifully. When needed, let thaw and roll out.
