Dutch Apple Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 lbs pie apples, peeled, cored and diced
    6 tbsp lemon juice
    1 cup powdered sugar
    4 cups all-purpose flour
    1 None egg
    1 1/4 cups butter
    1/3 cup sugar
    2 1/2 cups orange juice
    4 tbsp cornstarch
    1/4 cup brown sugar
Preparation
    Sprinkle the apples with 4 tbsp lemon juice. In a bowl, mix the powdered sugar and 2 1/2 cups flour. Add the egg and 2/3 cup butter and knead to a smooth dough.
    Grease an 11 inch diameter pie pan and sprinkle with flour. On a floured surface, roll out the dough to a 15 inch circle. Press into the pan and crimp edges. Chill for 30 mins.
    In a large saucepan, melt 3 tbsp butter. Sprinkle in 3 tbsp sugar, then add the apples and 2 tbsp lemon juice. Cover and simmer for 3 mins. Drain, reserving the cooking juice. Transfer the juice to a large measuring cup and add enough orange juice to create 2 1/2 cups.
    Mix 1/2 cup juice with the cornstarch until smooth. Return the remaining juice to the pan and bring to a boil. Stir in the cornstarch mixture and boil for 1 min, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and gently stir in the apples. Allow to cool.
    Preheat the oven to 325\u00b0F. In a separate saucepan, melt 1/2 cup butter. Mix the brown sugar, 1/4 cup sugar and 1 cup flour together. Pour in the melted butter and knead with fingertips to a crumble.
    Spoon the apple mixture into the pan and sprinkle over the crumble. Bake for 50 mins, or until golden brown. Allow to cool on a wire rack.
