Apple Cranberry Raisin Pie image

One of the best fruit pies I have eaten in a long time. This is a Canadian Living recipe that I had wanted to try for a while but it was a matter of having all of the ingredients on hand, which I finally did. The pie itself bakes very quickly as the filling is precooked.

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

pastry for a double-crust 9-inch pie
2 cups cranberries
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 large apples, peeled and sliced
1 cup seedless raisin
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • On a lightly-floured surface, roll out half of the pastry and line a 9" pie plate.
  • In a saucepan, combine the cranberries, sugar, 2 tablespoons of the water, cinnamon and salt.
  • Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes or until the cranberries pop.
  • Stir in the apple slices and raisins.
  • Combine the corn starch and remaining water and blend into the cranberry mixture.
  • Cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes or until thickened slightly.
  • Spoon the filling into the pastry-lined pie plate.
  • Roll out the remaining pastry and place on top of the pie, leaving a 1" overhang.
  • Trim the edges.
  • Tuck the overhang under the bottom crust and press together to form a rim.
  • Flute the rim.
  • Cut steam vents in the top of the pie and bake in a 400 degree F oven for about 35 minutes or until the crust is golden.
