1. Prepare the crust: ๐ŸŒพ In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes. This buttery crust will become the base for your slab pie. ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿณ

2. Preheat the oven: ๐Ÿ”ฅ Preheat your oven to 400ยฐF (200ยฐC) and lightly grease a 10ร—15-inch baking sheet or pan. ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿณ

3. Make the filling: ๐Ÿ In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and flour. Toss until the apples are evenly coated. The spices and lemon juice will add a sweet and tangy flavor to the apples, while the flour helps thicken the juices as the pie bakes. ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ

4. Roll out the dough: ๐Ÿž On a floured surface, roll out half of the dough to fit the bottom of your prepared baking sheet. Place the dough into the sheet, pressing it into the corners and trimming any excess. This will be the bottom crust for your apple slab pie. ๐ŸŽ‚

5. Assemble the pie: ๐Ÿ Spread the apple filling evenly over the bottom crust. Roll out the remaining dough and place it over the apples. Trim the edges and crimp the dough together to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape. The top crust will become golden and flaky as it bakes. ๐ŸŽ‚

6. Bake the pie: ๐Ÿ Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbly. Allow the pie to cool for 15 minutes before glazing. ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿณ

7. Make the glaze: ๐Ÿฏ In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and cinnamon until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled apple slab pie for a sweet finishing touch. ๐ŸŽ‚

8. Serve and enjoy: ๐Ÿ Slice the apple slab pie into squares and serve warm. This pie is perfect for feeding a crowd and can be served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat! ๐Ÿฅฐ
