Step 2

Prepare pastry dough: Stir together all-purpose flour, whole-wheat pastry flour, toasted wheat germ and ground nutmeg n a medium bowl. Use a pastry blender to cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon cold water over part of mixture; toss with a fork. Push moistened dough to side of bowl. Repeat, using 1 tablespoon cold water at a time until moistened. Form dough into a ball.
Step 3

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Flatten pastry dough on a lightly floured surface. Roll dough from center to edges into a 10x5-inch rectangle. Cut pastry lengthwise into nine 1/2-inch-wide strips. Carefully place 4 pastry strips lengthwise over reserved apples, place remaining 5 pastry strips crosswise over the apples, spacing strips evenly to form a lattice-style crust. Trim pastry strips; tuck ends into dish. Brush pastry with milk, sprinkle with reserved sugar mixture.
Step 4

Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until apples are tender, covering with foil, if necessary, to prevent overbrowning. Serve warm or cool.
