Roll half of pastry to 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly
floured surface. Place in a 9-inch pieplate; set aside.
Combine cider and sugar in a large saucepan; bring to a
boil. Add apples; cook, uncovered, 8 minutes or until
apples are tender. Drain, reserving syrup. Add enough
water to syrup to measure 1-1/3 cups liquid; return syrup
mixture and apples to saucepan. Combine cornstarch and 2
tablespoons water, stirring well; add to apple mixture.
Stir in cinnamon; cook, stirring constantly, until
thickened. Stir in butter. Spoon mixture into prepared
pastry shell. Roll remaining pastry to 1/8-inch thickness;
transfer to top of pie. Trim off excess pastry along
edges. Fold edges under and flute. Cut slits in top of
crust for steam to escape. Cover edges of pastry with
strips of aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning.
Bake at 375 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes. Serve warm or
cool. Yield: one 9-inch pie.
