My Dads Excellent Apple Cranberry Pie Recipe

My Dads Excellent Apple Cranberry Pie

From eclaires 16 years ago

My dad is an excellent cook, and this is just another one of his great tasting pies he makes around the holidays or in the fall.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees
Quarter and core apples - do not peel
Fill first pie crust with 1/2 the apples
Pour 1/2 cup of the sugar over the apples
Pour half the cranberries into the pie
Squeeze half the lemon over the pie
Fill with remaning of apples, sugar, cranberries and lemon juice
Sprinkle with cinnamon
Cut up butter and place throughout the pie (use more butter if want)
With other pie crust roll out and fold in half, creating 4 vent slits in the middle
Place on top and trim edges if necessary
Press pie edges together, pressing together with a fork dipped in warm milk
Poke pie for venting
With rest of milk pour over top of pie, getting it all damp
Sprinkle with sugar
Bake at 450 degrees for 15 minutes
Take out, but aluminum foil around edges so don't burn, lower to 350 degrees
Bake for 40 minutes
Let cool
