Ingredients

Crust:

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup butter diced and chilled
  • 3-4 tablespoons water chilled

Topping:

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Filling:

  • 4 cups apples peeled and sliced
  • 2 cups cranberries coarsely chopped
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup walnuts chopped

Instructions

  • For the crust, mix salt and flour. With a pastry blender, cut in cold butter until crumbly. Add cold water 1 tablespoon at a time until it comes together when pressed. Add more if needed. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 425 F.
  • In a bowl, mix the first four topping ingredients. In a separate bowl, stir the vanilla into the melted butter, pour it into the flour/sugar mixture and mix until combined. Put in refrigerator or freezer while making pie.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough to an 1/8-inch-thick circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges.
  • Combine all pie-filling ingredients. Pour into pastry-lined pie pan. Cover with crumb topping. Bake 50 minutes or until golden brown.
