Dutch Apple Pie Bars

• Pastry Crust
• 1 1/4 cups flour
• 1/3 cup shortening
• 5 -6 tablespoons cold water
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• Filling
• 4 -5 apples, medium-sized (peeled, cored & sliced)
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• Topping
• 3/4 cup flour
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/3 cup butter, softened
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 375u0b0F.
2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut shortening into flour until mixture resembles pea-sized crumbles. Work in cold water until a loose (but not too dry or too moist) pastry dough forms. Into a 10 x 13 inch baking pan lined with parchment paper, press into a 10 x 13 inch baking pan (small cookie sheet).
3. Combine apples, flour, sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice until thoroughly coated. Arrange in a thin, even layer atop pastry dough.
4. Combine flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Cut in butter until a crumbly texture forms. Sprinkle atop apples.
5. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until apples are tender, and the crust and topping are lightly browned.
