I recommend making this pie over two days. Make the pie dough the first day. The second day, par-bake the crust, make the fillings, and bake the whole pie. Chill it overnight and serve the next day. For more detailed step by step instructions on how to make homemade pie dough, see this post. If you have vodka on hand, you can add a tablespoon or two to the pie dough before the water. You'll end up adding less water, so still pay close attention to the hydration level. Vodka does not develop the gluten as much, which makes it perfect for hydrating pie dough and creating a super tender pie crust! The most important thing with making pie crust is to always keep the dough cold at all steps. So use ice cold water and cold butter, and any time you touch the dough you should put it back in the fridge for at least 20 minutes. Hold off on making the whipped cream until right before serving the pie.
