Directions:
- To make the crust, combine the butter, flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a food processor with a steel blade and pulse just until it resembles course crumbs.
- Slowly pour in the ice water and pulse just until combined and a dough ball forms. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour.
- Peel, core and slice the apples. Combine them in a bowl with the sugar, lemon juice, flour and salt.
- After the dough has chilled, roll it out on a well-floured surface until it's about a 12" circle.
- Lay it into a deep dish pie or tart pan and pour the apple mixture into the dish.
- Make the crumb topping by combining the sugar, flour, peanut butter and dash of salt in a bowl. Using your fingers, crumble the mixture over the top of the apple filling.
- Bake in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 50 - 60 minutes or until the top and sides are a light golden brown.
