    CRUST
    1/3 cup shortening
    1/3 cup butter
    2 cups flour
    1/3 cup boiling water
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    FILLING
    2 cups granny smith apples (peeled, cored and sliced)
    2 cups fresh raspberries

    1 tablespoon vanilla
    1 1/2 tablespoons butter

Preparation
    Crust first: Mix shortening, butter and flour.
    Add boiling water, salt and baking powder - mix well.
    Separate into 2 equal balls; place between 2 pieces of wax paper; roll, place in freezer (keep in freezer for about 15 minutes - cold pastry makes it easier to work with.).
    MEANWHILE -- WE'LL WORK ON THE FILLING.
    Lightly mix the cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla with the apples and raspberries.
    Line your pastry pan with one dough, and heap filling into it.
    Sprinkle the 1 tbsp of flour on top - do not mix inches
    Dot the filling with the 1 1/2 tbsp of butter.
    Cover with topping crust, make slits to allow steam to escape.
    Bake at 350 for 1 hour.
    Serve hot with ice cream with your family!
