How to cook deliciously - Cranberry Apple Pie

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 425°F. On a lightly floured surface, roll half the dough to a 1/8-inch-thick circle. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate, and trim even with the rim. Refrigerate the rolled-out dough while preparing the filling.

2. Stage

In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, orange juice, cinnamon, apple pie spice, nutmeg and lemon juice until thoroughly combined.

3. Stage

Add the apples and cranberries to the sugar mixture and toss gently. Editor's Tip: Toss the ingredients using a rubber spatula or, for more control, your hands.

4. Stage

Spoon the filling into the prepared pie plate. Dot the top of the filling all around with the butter.

5. Stage

Roll the remaining dough into a 1/8-inch-thick circle. Place the pie dough over the filling. Trim, seal and flute the edge. Cut slits in the top. Test Kitchen Tip: Avoid blowouts! Cutting slits in the pastry allows the steam to escape. Or, design a lattice crust. Learning how to make a lattice crust is easy and so worth the extra effort for a show-stopping pie!

6. Stage

Bake the pie for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350°, and bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 45 to 50 minutes longer. Editor's Tip: Sometimes a fruit pie’s filling bubbles over the crust during baking. That’s completely normal. However, we recommend placing a baking sheet on a separate rack underneath the pie to catch anything so you’re not cleaning the bottom of your oven later. If the pie’s crust is browning too quickly, add a pie crust shield to protect it from burning.
