Apple Pie Filling for a deep dish pie

The winning filling from the first it's All Delicious Kitchen Competition
13-15 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced (not too thin)
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons nutmeg
2 teaspoons Vanilla
Mix the sugars and cinnamon in a bowl. Stir in the vanilla. Add the sugar mixture to your apples and toss, making sure all the apple slices are covered.
Fill a prepared crust with apple mixture, press down the apples to fit in the shell. Cover with second crust. Make a few slits in the crust to allow for steam to escape and bake at 400F for an hour. The pie is done when the apples are tender when a tester is inserted. Let cool completely and better overnight so all the juices meld together. Ice cream and or whipped cream is essential.
