Cranberry Apple Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Fit a pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and arrange sliced apples into crust. Spread cranberries over apples. Whisk sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon in a small bowl and sprinkle mixture over cranberries. Distribute butter pieces over pie filling. Place remaining crust over filling, crimp both crusts together, and cut several slits into top crust to vent steam.
• Bake until pie is browned and fruit filling is bubbling, 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine all of the ingredients with 1 cup water. Bring to a boil over high heat then reduce the heat to simmer, stirring occasionally, just until the cranberries burst, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cool to room temperature.

Steps:

• For the crust: Whisk the flour, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, work the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse cornmeal mixed with pea-sized bits of cold butter. (If the butter gets too soft, refrigerate the mixture for 10 minutes before proceeding.) Use a fork to stir in the egg and water mixture until the dough just comes together. (If the dough is dry, add up to 1 tablespoon more cold water.) Divide the dough into two equal-sized disks, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 1 hour.
• For the filling: Peel, halve and core the apples. Cut each half into 4 wedges and place in a bowl with the lemon juice and cranberries, tossing to combine. Add the sugar and toss again to combine evenly.
• Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the apple mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to simmer, about 2 minutes. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low, cooking until the apples soften and release most of their juices and the cranberries have burst, about 7 minutes.
• Strain the apple mixture into a colander set over the bowl, shaking it to collect as much of the juice as possible. Pour the liquid back into the skillet, add the cinnamon and ginger, and simmer over medium heat until thickened and lightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Return the reduced juice and the apple mixture to the bowl and toss to recombine. Chill the filling until it cools completely, at least an hour and up to 2 days.
• To assemble the pie: On a lightly floured surface, roll each disk into an 11- to 12-inch circle. Lay each dough circle between two pieces of parchment or wax paper on a baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.
• Place a baking sheet on a rack positioned in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish with one of the dough discs and trim it to leave a 1/2-inch overhang on all sides. Stir the cornstarch into the filling and add it to the pan.
• Use a chef's knife, pizza cutter or fluted dough cutter to cut the second round into 1/2-inch thick strips. Lay strips of dough, evenly spaced, across the entire pie. Weave more strips of dough perpendicular through the previous strips to make a lattice or basket weave design across the entire pie. Trim the excess ends from the strips of dough. Pinch the bottom crust edge and lattice edge together, and flute the edge as desired. Brush the surface of the dough with egg and then sprinkle with sugar. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Bake the pie on the preheated baking sheet until the crust is golden, 50 to 60 minutes. If the edges begin to brown too fast, cover them with strips of aluminum foil. Let the pie cool 1 hour before serving. Once completely cooled, the pie keeps well at room temperature (covered) for 24 hours, or refrigerated for up to 4 days.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. In large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in orange peel, cinnamon and nutmeg with wooden spoon. Stir in apples and cranberries.
• In small bowl, mix sugar, pecans and flour; add to apple mixture and stir to combine. Place 1 pie crust in 10-inch metal pie pan. Spoon apple mixture into pie crust, packing tightly and mounding in center.
• On lightly floured surface, roll out second crust to 1/8-inch thickness. Gently place crust over filling; fold edge under and crimp, sealing to bottom crust. Cut 4 or 5 slits in top crust. Place pie pan on 15x10x1-inch pan.
• Bake 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F; bake 45 to 55 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown. Cool on cooling rack 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours.

Steps:

• To make crust, follow directions for Pumpkin Pie crust. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Roll pie dough out into a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Place dough in a 9-inch pie pan and refrigerate while you make the filling and topping.
• To make filling, mix all filling ingredients together in a medium bowl.
• To make topping, mix all topping ingredients together in a small bowl. The topping mixture should clump when pressed together.
• Add filling to cold pie crust and scatter topping all over the filling. Bake at 400 degrees until the juice in the center of the pie is bubbling, about 1 hour. If the crust or topping becomes too dark, cover the pie loosely with foil.
• Transfer to a wire rack; cool completely before serving.

Steps:
