For filling, combine ingredients (except apples and butter), add apples and toss to coat. Melt butter in large skillet over medium high heat. Add apple mixture and cook till apples are slightly softened, about 10 minutes. Cover and chill. Preheat oven to 350F. On a floured surface, roll out 1 dough piece to 14" diameter. Transfer to a 9" deep dish glass pie dish. Trim edges leaving 1/2" overhang. Fold overhang under and let rest on rim of dish. Line crust with foil. Fill with dried beans and bake 10 minutes.
