Cranberry Cherry Lattice Pie Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine sugar and cornstarch. Stir in pie filling and cranberries. Line a 9-in. pie plate with bottom pastry; trim to 1 in. beyond edge of plate. Pour filling into crust. , Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pie. Cut slits in pastry or cut out stars with a star-shaped cookie cutter. Place pastry over filling; trim, seal and flute edges. Arrange star cutouts on pastry. Brush with milk and sprinkle with sugar., Cover edges loosely with foil. Bake at 375°for 55-60 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Line a 9-in. pie plate with bottom pastry; trim even with the edge of plate. Set aside. In a large bowl, combine the cranberries, 3/4 cup sugar and cornstarch; stir in cherry pie filling. Spoon into crust., Roll out remaining pastry; make a lattice crust. Trim, seal and flute edges. Whisk together egg white and water; brush over crust. Sprinkle with the remaining sugar. , Cover the edges loosely with foil. Bake at 425° for 25 minutes. Remove foil; bake 15-20 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Mix together the cherry pie filling and cranberry sauce in a bowl. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate.
• Mix together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Cut in the butter until it resembles tiny pebbles, about 1 1/2 minutes. Mix in the buttermilk until it just comes together (it will be lumpy).
• Dollop 6 to 8 mounds of roughly 2 1/2-inch dough balls around the outside of the pie plate. Sprinkle the coarse sugar over the top.
• Bake until the biscuits are golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a medium pot over medium heat, combine the cranberries, orange zest, orange juice, sugar, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the berries begin to soften and break down, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Blend the mixture with an immersion blender, or in a blender or food processor, just until it's a coarse purée. Return the mixture to the heat and continue to cook, stirring often to prevent scorching, until the mixture has reduced slightly and the juices have thickened, 8 to 10 minutes more. Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts and let cool completely.
• On a lightly floured surface and using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out a disk of dough into a circle about ¼-inch thick. Starting at one end, gently roll up the dough onto the rolling pin. Unfurl the dough over a 9-inch pie plate, preferably ceramic, and press it in lightly, making sure it's lining the plate. Trim so that there's about ½ inch of excess dough hanging over the edge of the pie plate. Pour the cooled filling into the crust and smooth into an even layer. Refrigerate while you prepare the top crust.
• Roll out the remaining dough into a rectangle about 9 inches wide and ¼-inch thick. Roll up the dough onto the rolling pin and unfurl it onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Using a ruler and a pastry wheel or paring knife, trim away the uneven edges. Cut the dough into strips ½-inch wide; you'll need 18 strips. If the dough becomes warm and difficult to handle, return the whole pie and sheet of strips to the refrigerator once or twice, or keep the strips in the refrigerator, retrieving them one at a time as you weave.
• To form the lattice, place 9 strips evenly spaced across the pie vertically. Next, place the first horizontal strip across the center of the pie: Start by folding up the first vertical strip of dough, then skip three strips (do not fold up), then fold up the following three pieces of dough, leaving the final strips untouched. Place the horizontal dough strip across the center. Return the folded back strips back down over the horizontal strip.
• Place the next horizontal strip below the first: Fold up the first two vertical strips of dough. Skip the next three strips (do not fold up), then fold up the following three pieces of dough, leaving the final strip untouched. Place the horizontal strip so it's spaced evenly from the first one you laid down (they should have the same space between them as the vertical strips have between each other). Return the folded strips back down over the horizontal strip.
• Place the next horizontal strip below the previous one: Fold up the first three vertical strips of dough. Skip the next three strips (do not fold up), then fold up the following three pieces of dough. Place the horizontal strip, and return the folded strips back down over it.
• Place the next horizontal strip below the previous one: Skipping the first vertical strip of dough, fold up the next three. Skip the following three strips (do not fold up), then fold up the remaining two strips. Place the horizontal strip, and return the folded strips back down over it.
• Place the next horizontal strip below the previous one: Skipping the first two vertical strips of dough, fold up the next three. Skip the following three strips (do not fold up), then fold up the remaining strip. Place the horizontal strip, and return the folded strips back down over it.
• Place the next horizontal strip above the first one you placed (in the center): Skip the first three vertical strips of dough (do not fold up), then fold up the next three strips, skipping the final three strips. Place the horizontal strip, and return the folded strips back down over it.
• Place the next horizontal strip above the previous one: Skip the first two vertical strips of dough (do not fold up), then fold up the following three pieces of dough. Skip the next three (do not fold up), then fold back the final strip. Place the horizontal strip, and return the folded strips back down over it.
• Place the next horizontal strip above the previous one: Fold up the first three vertical strips of dough. Skip the next three strips (do not fold up), then fold up the following three pieces of dough. Place the horizontal strip, and return the folded strips back down over it.
• Place the final horizontal strip above the previous one: Fold up the first two vertical strips of dough. Skip the next three strips (do not fold up), then fold up the following three pieces of dough, skipping the last strip. Place the horizontal strip, and return the folded strips back down over it.
• Pinch the edges of the lattice strips and bottom crust together to seal. Trim away any excess with scissors, leaving ½ inch around the outside rim of the plate. Tuck the excess crust up and over to encase the lattice; press firmly to seal them together and make a uniform edge. The pie can be left like this for a straight-edge finish, or crimped as desired. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Place a rack on the bottom shelf of the oven, and place a baking stone, if you have one, on the rack. Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Transfer the pie to the baking sheet, and brush egg wash on the lattice strips. (Don't add egg wash to the crimped edges; they'll brown sufficiently on their own.)
• Sprinkle the pie with turbinado sugar and transfer the baking sheet to the oven, placing it directly on the baking stone if using. Bake until the top crust is evenly golden and the filling has puffed up slightly, 45 to 50 minutes. Tent with foil in the last 5 to 10 minutes of baking if the crust is becoming too dark.
• Cool on a rack for at least 40 minutes before slicing and serving. The pie is best the day it is baked. Store leftovers at room temperature, wrapped tightly in plastic.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
• 2. Line 9 inch pie plate with half of pie crust , add filling . Dot with butter .
• 3. Take the top of the pie crust and cut into lattice strips .place lattice crust over filling , seal and flute edges . Brush lattice top with milk .
• 4. Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until crust is golden brown ( cover edge of crust with foil after 15 minutes to prevent over browning ) Makes 1 pie
• 5. Cool before cutting

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse the flour, granulated sugar and salt in a food processor. Add 1 stick cut-up butter and the shortening; pulse until it looks like coarse meal. Add the remaining 1 stick butter; pulse until it is in pea-size pieces. Add the egg yolk and 6 tablespoons ice water and pulse until the dough begins to clump together, adding up to 2 more tablespoons ice water if necessary. Turn out the dough onto a clean surface, divide in half and press into 2 disks. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Combine the cherries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest and juice and almond extract in a large bowl. Toss until the sugar is dissolved and the cherries are well coated; set aside.
• Roll out one disk of dough into a 12-inch round on a floured surface. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate and trim, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Pour in the filling.
• Roll out the other disk of dough into a 12-inch round. Trim the edges, then cut the dough into 3/4-inch-wide strips using a fluted cutter or a knife. (You should have about 12 strips.) Lay half of the strips over the pie, about 3/4 inch apart. Fold back every other strip. Lay another strip of dough perpendicular to the existing strips, then fold the dough back over the new strip. Repeat, folding back every other strip and weaving in new ones, to form a lattice. Trim the strips, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Fold the overhanging dough (strips and bottom crust) under itself, pressing to seal. Crimp the edges with your fingers or a fork, if desired.
• Brush the lattice and crust edges with the beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Refrigerate the pie until firm, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, put a baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven and preheat to 400˚ F.
• Put the pie on the hot baking sheet and reduce the oven temperature to 375˚ F. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling, 55 to 65 minutes. (Tent with foil if the crust is browning too quickly.) Transfer to a rack and let cool completely before slicing.

Steps:

• Line a 9-in. pie plate with bottom pastry; set aside. In a large bowl, combine the sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and allspice. Add pears and cranberries; toss to coat. Spoon into crust; dot with butter., Roll out remaining pastry; make a lattice crust. Trim, seal and flute edges. , In a small bowl, whisk egg and milk; brush over pastry. Sprinkle with additional sugar. Cover pie loosely with foil to prevent overbrowning. , Bake at 450° for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350° and remove foil; bake for 40-45 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. Toss together first 8 ingredients., On a lightly floured surface, roll half of dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim crust even with rim. Add filling., Roll remaining dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; cut into strips. Arrange over filling in a lattice pattern. Trim and seal strips to edge of bottom crust; flute edge. Brush lattice with egg; sprinkle with additional sugar. , Bake 10 minutes. Reduce oven setting to 350°; bake until golden brown, 40-45 minutes, covering edge with foil if crust is getting too dark. Cool completely on a wire rack; refrigerate until serving., Meanwhile, beat whipping cream until it begins to thicken. Add remaining ingredients; beat until soft peaks form. Refrigerate until serving. Serve with pie.

Steps:

• On a lightly floured work surface, roll 1 disk of dough to 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Trim edges flush with rim. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
• On a piece of lightly floured parchment paper, roll out remaining disk of dough to 1/8 inch thick. Top with an inverted 9-inch pie plate or a cake ring, and gently press to make a light indentation (this will be your guide for cutting the lattice to fit the pie). Using a 3/4-inch square cutter, cut a lattice pattern out of the round, leaving at least 1/2 inch between cutouts and edge of round. Transfer squares to a parchment-lined baking sheet. To make partial squares where the lattice meets the rounded edge, make a very light indentation with the cutter, then cut out the portion of the square that is inside the round with a knife. Using a paring knife or a pizza cutter, cut out the round, leaving an additional 1/2 inch of dough beyond the marked circle. Reroll scraps, and cut out as many additional squares as possible. Transfer parchment with the lattice top to a baking sheet. Refrigerate lattice top and squares for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with racks in middle and lower positions. Peel, halve, and core pears. Very thinly slice 3 pears lengthwise, and cut remaining 2 pears into 8 wedges each.
• Toss together pears, cranberries, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a large bowl. Using the tip of a paring knife, scrape vanilla seeds over pear mixture, and toss until seeds have been evenly incorporated. Pour filling into piecrust, gently pressing to make it as level as possible. Dot filling with butter.
• To make egg wash, whisk together egg yolk and cream in a small bowl. Lightly brush edge of piecrust with egg wash. Remove lattice crust and squares from refrigerator. Gently place another baking sheet on top of lattice, and carefully invert. Slide lattice on top of filling, and remove parchment. Gently press edges of crust to seal, trimming edges of lattice if necessary.
• Lightly brush lattice with egg wash. Arrange dough squares around edge of pie, overlapping them slightly. Lightly brush top of each square with egg wash as you work to help them adhere.
• Place a foil-lined baking sheet on lower oven rack to catch any juices. Place pie on middle rack, and bake until crust is golden brown and juices are bubbling gently, 90 to 100 minutes. Tent with foil if crust browns too quickly. Let pie cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat preserves in a saucepan over medium heat until warm. Puree in a food processor until smooth. Press through a fine sieve into a bowl or another saucepan, and reheat if necessary. Brush warm pie with a generous amount of warm apricot glaze. Let cool completely on rack.
