Recipe
Classic Cranberry-Apple Pie
Indulge in the perfect blend of tart cranberries and sweet apples, all wrapped in a flaky pastry crust.
Ingredients
1 | 9-inch double-crust pie shells |
|---|---|
1 3⁄4 | sugar (1 ¾ to 2 cups) |
1⁄4 | cup all-purpose flour |
3 | sliced, peeled tart apples, about 3 medium |
2 | fresh cranberries or 2 cups frozen cranberries, thawed |
2 | tablespoons margarine or butter |
Instructions
| 1. | Preheat the oven to 425ºF (220ºC). |
|---|---|
| 2. | Begin by preparing the pastry for the pie. |
| 3. | In a bowl, combine the sugar and flour. |
| 4. | Arrange half of the sliced tart apples in the bottom of the pastry-lined 9-inch pie plate. |
| 5. | Next, layer the fresh or thawed cranberries over the apples. |
| 6. | Sprinkle the sugar and flour mixture evenly over the cranberries. |
| 7. | Add the remaining sliced tart apples on top. |
| 8. | Evenly distribute pieces of margarine or butter across the top. |
| 9. | Cover the filling with the top crust, ensuring to cut slits for ventilation, then seal and flute the edges. |
| 10. | To prevent excessive browning, cover the edge of the crust with a 2- to 3-inch strip of aluminum foil. Remove the foil during the last 15 minutes of baking. |
| 11. | Bake the pie for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the crust is a golden brown and the juices start to bubble through the slits. |
| 12. | Serve the pie warm and, for an extra touch of indulgence, pair it with a scoop of ice cream if desired. |
