The leaves are FALLing..

Fall is in the air and what better to warm and comfort the chilly air than a nice warm pie!


The two types of cranberries in this recipe create a sweet and tart pie. Gravenstein apples work best because they hold their shape and have a delicious tart flavor. If you cannot find Gravenstein, try Pink Lady, McIntosh, or Braeburn. You'll also need a 9-inch pie pan.

Ingredients:

Makes 8 servings

  • CRUST
  • Pumpkin Pie
  • FILLING
  • Juice of 1 orange
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • 5 cups of peeled, sliced apples (approximately 5 medium apples)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, chopped (if frozen, do not thaw)
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • TOPPING
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons oats
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions:

  • To make crust, follow directions for Pumpkin Pie crust. Preheat oven to 400. Roll pie dough out into a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Place dough in the pie pan and refrigerate while you make the filling and topping.
  • To make filling, mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl. To make topping, mix all 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.

  • ENJOY!
