I tried this recipe out, and the finished product tasted fantastic. My only problem was that with a \"medium\" apple, I could only fit half of it into the crust! If you're set on using a whole apple, look for the smallest granny smith you can find at your grocery store. Also, I'd suggest chilling the dough for a little while before rolling it out.
