Directions
In a small bowl combine the 1/4 cup water with 1/4 cup flour to make a smooth paste, set aside. In the food processor, combine remaining flour and salt; add shortening and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add reserved flour/water mixture and pulse a few times until dough forms a ball.
Press dough onto the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 15x10 inch baking pan (jelly roll pan).
Spread 1/4 cup of the maple syrup over the unbaked crust and arrange apples over the syrup. Combine the sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, vanilla and remaining syrup and drizzle over the apples.
For the topping, combine the flour and sugar in a bowl and cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the pecans and sprinkle over the filling. Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 1 hour or until apples are tender.
