Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out half of the pie crust pastry and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Trim any excess and chill until needed.
Peel, core, and slice the apples. Place them in a large bowl.
Sprinkle the apples with lemon juice to prevent browning.
In a small saucepan, add honey and dried lavender flowers and simmer on low heat for about 5 minutes. Strain and set aside to cool.
Mix together granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg in another bowl.
Add the sugar mixture to the apples, tossing until they're well coated.
Stir in the lavender-infused honey and vanilla extract into the apple mixture.
Pour the apple mixture into the prepared crust, mounding it slightly in the center.
Roll out the remaining dough and cover the pie. Seal and flute the edges, then cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with water to make an egg wash, and brush over the crust.
Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for at least 2 hours before serving, allowing the filling to set.
