Categories     dessert

Time 5h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
4 teaspoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
14 tablespoons (1 3/4 sticks) cold unsalted butter, diced
1 large egg, lightly beaten with 2 tablespoons cold water
2 1/2 pounds baking apples like Golden Delicious, Cortland or Mutsu
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 cups (about 8 ounces) frozen cranberries, thawed and drained
3/4 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 large egg, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • For the crust: Whisk the flour, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, work the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse cornmeal mixed with pea-sized bits of cold butter. (If the butter gets too soft, refrigerate the mixture for 10 minutes before proceeding.) Use a fork to stir in the egg and water mixture until the dough just comes together. (If the dough is dry, add up to 1 tablespoon more cold water.) Divide the dough into two equal-sized disks, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 1 hour.
  • For the filling: Peel, halve and core the apples. Cut each half into 4 wedges and place in a bowl with the lemon juice and cranberries, tossing to combine. Add the sugar and toss again to combine evenly.
  • Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the apple mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to simmer, about 2 minutes. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low, cooking until the apples soften and release most of their juices and the cranberries have burst, about 7 minutes.
  • Strain the apple mixture into a colander set over the bowl, shaking it to collect as much of the juice as possible. Pour the liquid back into the skillet, add the cinnamon and ginger, and simmer over medium heat until thickened and lightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Return the reduced juice and the apple mixture to the bowl and toss to recombine. Chill the filling until it cools completely, at least an hour and up to 2 days.
  • To assemble the pie: On a lightly floured surface, roll each disk into an 11- to 12-inch circle. Lay each dough circle between two pieces of parchment or wax paper on a baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.
  • Place a baking sheet on a rack positioned in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish with one of the dough discs and trim it to leave a 1/2-inch overhang on all sides. Stir the cornstarch into the filling and add it to the pan.
  • Use a chef's knife, pizza cutter or fluted dough cutter to cut the second round into 1/2-inch thick strips. Lay strips of dough, evenly spaced, across the entire pie. Weave more strips of dough perpendicular through the previous strips to make a lattice or basket weave design across the entire pie. Trim the excess ends from the strips of dough. Pinch the bottom crust edge and lattice edge together, and flute the edge as desired. Brush the surface of the dough with egg and then sprinkle with sugar. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Bake the pie on the preheated baking sheet until the crust is golden, 50 to 60 minutes. If the edges begin to brown too fast, cover them with strips of aluminum foil. Let the pie cool 1 hour before serving. Once completely cooled, the pie keeps well at room temperature (covered) for 24 hours, or refrigerated for up to 4 days.

Nutrition Facts : ServingSize 1 Serving

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling during the process.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh cranberries and apples will give your pie the best flavor. If you can, try to use organic ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't Overmix the Dough: When making the pie crust, be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the crust tough and crumbly.
  • Chill the Dough: Before rolling out the dough, chill it for at least 30 minutes. This will make it easier to work with and prevent it from shrinking in the oven.
  • Trim the Excess Dough: After you've rolled out the dough, trim off any excess dough around the edges. This will help the pie crust bake evenly.
  • Blind Bake the Crust: Before filling the pie crust with the cranberry-apple mixture, blind bake it for 10-12 minutes. This will help prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
  • Use a Pie Shield: If you're worried about the edges of your pie crust burning, use a pie shield. This will protect the crust while it's baking.
  • Let the Pie Cool: Once the pie is baked, let it cool for at least 1 hour before serving. This will give the filling time to set and the flavors to meld.
