Combine sugar, cornstarch and butter in saucepan.
Mix until well blended, add apples.
Heat to boiling, stirring constantly.

Spread apple mixture over pastry. Roll remaining pastry to fit pan.
Place on top of filling. Fold bottom pastry over and press to seal.
Cut a few slits in top. Bake for 40 minutes at 400 degrees or until lightly browned.
