Steps:
- Make pastry:
- Blend together flour, butter, shortening, and salt in a bowl with your fingertips or a pastry blender (or pulse in a food processor) just until mixture resembles coarse meal with some roughly pea-size butter lumps. Drizzle 3 tablespoon ice water evenly over mixture and gently stir with a fork (or pulse) until incorporated.
- Squeeze a small handful: If dough doesn't hold together, add more ice water, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, stirring until incorporated. Do not overwork dough or pastry will be tough.
- Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 4 portions. With heel of your hand, smear each portion once or twice in a forward motion to help distribute fat. Gather all dough together (using a pastry scraper if you have one) and form into a 5-inch disk. If dough is sticky, dust lightly with additional flour. Chill, wrapped in plastic wrap, until firm, at least 1 hour.
- Make crumble topping:
- Stir together flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Blend in butter with your fingertips until large clumps form, then stir in pecans. Chill until ready to use.
- Make fruit filling:
- Stir together apples, cranberries, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, and lemon juice in a large bowl.
- Assemble pie:
- Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in lower third.
- Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 13-inch round, then fit into pie plate. Trim edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang, then fold overhang under and crimp decoratively. Transfer fruit filling to pie shell and dot with butter. Loosely cover with foil and bake until apples droop slightly, about 30 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 375°F. Sprinkle crumble topping over filling and bake, uncovered, until crumble is browned, filling is bubbling, and apples are tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour more. Cool completely, 2 to 3 hours.

- Drizzle with brandy, and toss again.
- Cover, and microwave on HIGH for 8-10 minutes, tossing well and turning after 4-5 minutes.

- Press crust gently into bottom of pie pan, and trim about 1" larger than pan.

- Lay on top crust, trim to same size as the bottom crust, and gently press the edges together.

Steps:
- Make the crust: Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and shortening. Using a pastry cutter, gradually work the butter and shortening into the flour until the mixture resembles tiny pebbles. This step should take 3 to 4 minutes.
- Lightly beat the egg with a fork, then add it to the crust mixture. Next, add the cold water and vinegar. Stir the mixture together until it?s just combined. Divide the dough in half and form into disks. Wrap in plastic wrap and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
- Make the filling: In a large bowl, toss the apples, cranberries, brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, salt and lemon juice. Set aside and see how long you can keep from sneaking a slice of apple.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. With a rolling pin, begin rolling out the dough disks into 12-inch rounds on a lightly floured surface, rolling from the center outward. Be gentle and patient; it?ll take a little time to get the dough completely rolled out. If you think the bottom is really sticking to the surface below, use a nice sharp spatula to loosen the dough and sprinkle some extra flour on top. Then flip it over to finish rolling. Loosen the dough with a spatula, lift and carefully place each round on a prepared baking sheet.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place half the apple-cranberry mixture on 1 dough round and the other half on the other round. Fold in the edges so that the dough covers 2 to 3 inches of the apple-cranberry mixture. No need to be artistic?the more rustic, the better. Freeze the pies 30 minutes.
- Dot the tops of the pies with the butter chunks. Brush the crust edges with the egg wash. Bake the pies until the filling is golden and bubbling, 35 to 45 minutes. If the crust appears to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil for the remaining baking time. Let the pies cool slightly, then slice into wedges.

- Combine the apple pieces and the cranberries in a bowl. Add one-fourth cup of the oat bran, two-thirds cup of the sugar and one-half teaspoon of the cinnamon and toss. Dot with two tablespoons of the butter and toss again. Spread in the prepared pie pan.
- Combine the remaining oat bran, sugar, pecans and cinnamon and mash in remaining four tablespoons of butter with a fork until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle over the fruit.
- Bake for about 30 minutes, until the top has browned and the filling is bubbling. Allow to cool until just warm, then serve with whipped cream or ice cream on the side.

DRIED APPLE AND CRANBERRY PIE
Steps:
- Cover dried apples with water. Soak 2 to 3 hours. Drain water, reserving 1 cup. In a saucepan, simmer soaked apples, 1 cup water, and cranberries until cranberries start to burst.
- Remove from heat; add sugar, raisins, cinnamon, orange peel, and the juice of 2 limes.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Prepare piecrust. Pour mixture into pie plate lined with lower crust. Cover with top crust.
- Bake pie for 1 hour.
- Measure and set aside 1/2 cup flour and 2 tablespoons butter. Rub the remaining butter into the flour. Stir in cold water with a fork.
- Roll dough out on well-floured board with a floured rolling pin, dot with 1 tablespoon reserved butter, and sprinkle 1 tablespoon reserved flour. Roll up the dough like a jelly roll. Flour lightly and roll to a 1/4 -inch thickness.
- Repeat the butter and flour addition procedure, using up all butter and flour. Divide dough in half and form into 2 discs, covering each with plastic wrap. Store in a cool place until needed.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh cranberries and apples. If using frozen cranberries, thaw them before using.
- To make the pie crust, use a food processor or pastry blender to combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Then, add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- When adding the water to the pie crust mixture, do so one tablespoon at a time until the dough just comes together. Overworking the dough will make it tough.
- Roll out the pie dough on a lightly floured surface. Be sure to roll it out evenly so that the pie crust is the same thickness all over.
- When filling the pie, mound the fruit mixture in the center of the pie crust. Do not overfill the pie, or the filling will bubble over during baking.
- To make the lattice crust, cut the remaining pie dough into 1-inch wide strips. Weave the strips over and under each other to create a lattice pattern.
- Brush the top of the pie crust with milk and sprinkle with sugar before baking. This will give the pie a golden brown crust.
- Bake the pie for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Let the pie cool for at least 1 hour before serving. This will allow the filling to set.
Conclusion:
This cranberry apple pie is a delicious and classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tart filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this cranberry apple pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
