Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh cranberries and apples. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just be sure to thaw them before using them.
  • If you don't have a pastry brush, you can use a spoon to brush the egg wash onto the crust.
  • To make sure the pie crust is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of the pie. If it comes out clean, the pie is done.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 1 hour before serving. This will give the filling time to set.
  • Serve the pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Enjoy!

Conclusion:

This cranberry apple pie is a delicious and festive 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 delicious and easy-to-make dessert, give this cranberry apple pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
