Instructions
In a bowl, combine 1 cup flour and salt; cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

In a large bowl, combine sugar, cinnamon and remaining flour.
Add apples and pears; toss.
For topping, combine flour and brown sugar; cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in walnuts.
Bake at 375° for 50-60 minutes or until fruit is tender.
Recommended wine: Prosecco, Moscato Dasti, Late Harvest Riesling
Apple Pie can be paired with Prosecco, Moscato d'Asti, and Late Harvest Riesling. These dessert wines have the right amount of sweetness and light, fruity flavors that won't overpower apple pie. The Ruffino Prosecco Made with Organic Grapes with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.
Ruffino Prosecco Made with Organic Grapes
The bouquet is fragrant and bursting with fruit notes. It has clean aromas of apples, pears, and citrus, accompanied by hints of wisteria. Crisp, clean, and delicate with fine bubbles on the palate. Intense flavors of apple and peach lead to a pleasant finish with lingering fruit and floral notes.
