Best EVER Apple Pie

1 recipe for a 9 inch double pie crust
1/2 c. unsalted butter
3 T. flour
1/4 c. water
1/2 c. white sugar
1/2 c. packed brown sugar
5 - 8 Johnny Gold apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
cinnamon to taste
nutmeg to taste
ginger or other spices as desired

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in flour to form a paste. Add water, sugars, and bring to a boil. Reduce temperature and let simmer. Place the bottom crust in your pie pan. Fill with apples, mounded slightly. Cover with a latticework of crust. Gently and slowly, pour the sugar and butter liquid over the crust. If desired, sprinkle some spices, such as cinnamon and nutmeg over the pie. Bake 15 minutes in preheated oven. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees and continue baking for 35 to 45 minutes, or until apples are soft.
