Make the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt for the crust. Add the cold cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or fork to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Divide the dough in half, shape each half into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and lemon juice. Toss until the apples are evenly coated with the sugar and spice mixture. Set aside.
Roll Out the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disk of chilled dough into a rectangle slightly larger than the dimensions of your baking dish. Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to the prepared baking dish, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.
Add the Apple Filling: Spread the prepared apple filling evenly over the bottom crust in the baking dish.
Make the Crumb Topping: In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt for the crumb topping. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the apple filling in the baking dish.
Bake the Pie: Transfer the assembled pie to the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Cool and Serve: Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the delicious flavors of this Apple Crumb Slab Pie.
