This classic Sonoma County Apple Pie recipe is made with tart apples and a buttery crust. The apples are peeled and sliced, then mixed with a combination of sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of lemon juice for a delicious flavor. The crust is made with butter, flour, and a pinch of salt for a flaky and flavorful pastry. The pie is then baked to perfection in a preheated oven until golden brown.

Peel the apples using a vegetable peeler. Cut the apples into thin slices and place them in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix together the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Pour the mixture over the apples and mix until the apples are evenly coated.
In another bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Cut the butter into small cubes and add it to the bowl. Use a pastry blender to mix the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Roll out half of the dough on a lightly floured surface. Place the dough into a 9-inch pie dish and press it into the sides and bottom. Pour the apple mixture into the pie dish.
Roll out the remaining dough and place it over the top of the pie. Trim the excess dough and crimp the edges to seal the pie.
Bake the pie in a preheated 350°F oven for 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown.
