Instructions
Crust:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Beat milk, shortening, egg, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until smooth. Stir in flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt into milk mixture until dough comes together. Spread dough out into the bottom and edges of a 9 inch round baking pan. I used a tin one.

Topping:
  1. Spread sliced apples over the dough on the baking sheet.
  2. Stir sugar, melted butter, flour, and cinnamon together in a bowl until topping is combined. Sprinkle topping over apples.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and topping is golden, about 40 minutes.
