  3. ROLL out dough for top crust. Place onto filled pie. Trim 1/2-inch beyond edge. Fold top crust under bottom crust edge to seal. Crimp and flute edges. Cut slits in top crust or prick with fork to allow steam to escape.
  4. BAKE 40 to 50 minutes or until filling in center is bubbly and crust is golden brown. Cover edge with foil, if necessary, to prevent over browning. To make glaze: Combine powdered sugar and cinnamon. Add apple juice. Mix well. Spoon over top of hot pie. Cool until barely warm or to room temperature before serving.
