Ingredients for Apple Cranberry Crisp Pie

  • Pie Crusts
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • All Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (for topping)
  • 6 medium apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp recommended), peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 1 (12-ounce) bag fresh or frozen cranberries
  • Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar (for topping)
  • Margarine

How to Make Apple Cranberry Crisp Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the peeled and sliced apples, cranberries, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss gently to coat.
  3. Pour the apple and cranberry mixture into a 9-inch pie crust.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, butter, and salt for the crisp topping. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Sprinkle the crisp topping evenly over the apple and cranberry filling.
  6. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  7. Let cool completely before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
