Equipment

  • 1 9 inch pie dish
  • 1 large rimmed baking sheet
  • Rolling Pin
  • mixing bowls

Ingredients
  

For the Pie Crust

  • 1.5 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter cubed and very cold
  • 4-6 tablespoons water ice cold

For the Crumble Topping

  • 3/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

For the Pie Filling

  • 6 cups apples, peeled and sliced approximately 5-6 large apples
  • 1 cup fresh cranberries
  • 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

Instructions
 

For the pie crust

  • Add the flour, salt and butter to a food processor and pulse several times until the flour mixture is crumbly and resembles coarse sand. Add ice cold water 1 tbsp at a time pulsing in between each addition until the dough comes together and forms a ball taking care not to overwork the dough.
  • Pat the dough ball into a flat disk, wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight

For the pie

  • Place a rimmed baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F while you prepare the pie.
  • Prepare the crumble. Add the flour, brown sugar, oats, cinnamon and salt to a medium bowl and stir together. Drizzle in the melted butter and stir until fully combined. Place the crumble in the refrigerate while you prepare the apples.
  • Peel the apples and cut into 1/4 inch thick slices. Place the apple slices in a large bowl and add in the cranberries, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. Toss everything together ensuring the apples are fully coated.
  • Roll out the pie crust into a 12 inch circle and transfer to a pie dish. Cut off the excess crust and crimp the edges. Spoon the apples into the prepared pie crust and sprinkle the crumble mixture over the apples.
  • Place the pie on the heated baking sheet in the oven. Bake the pie for 55-65 minutes. Check occasionally to ensure the pie crust or the crumble is not browning too quickly. If this happens place aluminum foil over the pie while it continues to bake to prevent burning.
  • Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to fully cool (at least 2 hours to allow the apples to set) before serving.
