Ingredients
1 store bought or homemade pie crust
1 egg + 1 Tbl milk for eggwash for the crust
- For the Crumble Topping:
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
6 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp Vietnamese Cinnamon
5 Tbsp butter, cold and cubed
1/2 cup oats
- For the Pie Filling:
6 cups peeled, sliced Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples (about 5 apples)
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup flour
2 tsp Apple Pie Spice
1/2 tsp Baker’s Salt
Instructions
- For the Crumble:
- Mix the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a medium bowl. Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter until the mixture is crumbly. Stir in the oats. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the Pie:
- Heat the oven to 400°F. Roll out the pie crust until about 1/8 inch thick. Place in a 9-inch pie tin. Crimp the edges and brush the edges with egg wash. Place in the refrigerator.
- In a bowl, combine the apple slices, cranberries, brown sugar, flour, Apple Pie Spice and salt. Pour the filling into the chilled crust. Sprinkle the cold crumble topping all over the filling.Â
- Place the pie on a baking sheet and move to the oven. Bake for 20 mins then reduce the oven temp to 350°F. Bake for 30-40 mins or until the filling is bubbly and the crumble is brown. The internal temp should be 200°F. If the edges are getting two brown, use a pie shield or strips of foil. If the entire pie is getting too brown, tent the pie loosely with foil.
- Cool the pie completely on a rack. Note that the pie will not hold its shape if sliced while warm – still delicious. If you want neat and tidy slices, allow the pie to cool completely.
