Continental Apple Pie

"I found this recipe in a British cookbook many years ago, and it's one I've come back to time and time again. (I've converted the measurements.) It's a great dessert to serve when company's coming. The pie is pretty, and goes very well with whipped cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream."
