Have you ever studied so much it started to get to your nerves? So you turn to cooking... and the sound you make when slicing the apples with a sense of determination slowly gives you a sense of calm?

Well, meet apple pie with a twist.

Crust:
1 stick cold unsalted butter
1 cup whole wheat floor
1 cup white flour
1/4 ice cold lime mineral water ( yes lime)
1/3 cup powdered sugar

Combine until the  crumbly dough barely sticks together, press it into the pie pan, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate while you make the filling


Filling:
2 small granny smith apples
3 pink lady apples
1/3 cup brown sugar, unpacked
1 tsp vanilla
1 lime, juiced
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tbsp flour
1 tsp cinnamon

Topping:
2/3 cup oats
1/2 cup flour
3/4 stick unsalted butter
1 pinch cinnamon
2 tbsp orange juice


See the bears eying the pie. You know they want some.
( Sadly, I had to take a picture of the pie after it was refrigerated, so it doesnt look as amazing )

EDIT: As one of my readers kindly pointed out, I didn't specify the cooking temperature etc on the original post. It can now be found in my comments suggestion. Though my advice remains: you know your kitchen appliances the best and can probably determine the ideal temperature/time based on the other goodies you have made. What worked for me, may not work for you. Either way, the aroma of a baked item wafting through the home is usually a good sign ;)
