Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples; set aside.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in flour and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Add white sugar, brown sugar, and water to the melted butter mixture and bring to a boil; simmer for 3-5 minutes.
Place one pastry in a pie pan; fill it with apple slices forming a slight mound.
Cut remaining pastry into strips to create a lattice top over the apples.
Pour the sugar mixture over the lattice crust and bake for 15 minutes at high temperature before reducing to 350°F (175°C) for an additional 35-45 minutes until apples are soft.
Let cool slightly before serving.
