I don't remember where I found this. I made it for my family at Thanksgiving and it was well received. The variety of apples gives it a great taste. I used Braeban, Granny Smith, Fugi, and Pink Lady. I allow the pastry to thaw while I am browning the apples and making up the apple mixture.

On lightly floured surface roll remaining dough to 14" circle and place on top of fruit filling. Cut clits for steam to escape. Trim crust to 1/2" beyond edge of pie plate. Fold top pastry edge under bottom pastry, crimp edge. Brust top with mixture of beaten egg and water. Cover edge of pie with foil to prevent overbrowning.
