Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C.) Position oven rack in the bottom third of the oven.
• In a medium bowl, toss together the dried cranberries, sugar, flour and allspice. Mix in the apples, brandy and vanilla. Place bottom crust into a 9 inch round pie pan so that it hangs 1 inch over the edges. Pour filling into the crust and cover with top crust. Seal and flute the edges. Cut slits in the top using a small knife.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 60 to 65 minutes, or until apples are tender and crust is golden.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Fit a pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and arrange sliced apples into crust. Spread cranberries over apples. Whisk sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon in a small bowl and sprinkle mixture over cranberries. Distribute butter pieces over pie filling. Place remaining crust over filling, crimp both crusts together, and cut several slits into top crust to vent steam.
• Bake until pie is browned and fruit filling is bubbling, 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees F (set oven rack to lowest position).
• Line the bottom of a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate with prepared pastry.
• In a medium bowl combine the apples with whole cranberry sauce.
• In a small bowl combine the brown sugar with flour, cinnamon and nutmeg.
• Add the apple mixture; mix until completely combined.
• Mix in nuts (if using).
• Transfer to the crust-lined pie plate.
• Cover with remaining pastry then crimp the edges.
• Cut 2-3 slits in the top of the pastry.
• Lightly brush whipping cream evenly over the pastry then sprinkle sugar over the top.
• Place the pie onto a baking sheet to prevent any spills.
• Bake for about 1 hour or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
• CRUMB TOPPING:.
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour PLUS 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour/ 1/2 cup light brown, packed/ 1/3 cup white sugar/ 1 teaspoon cinnamon/ 1/2 cup cold butter cut into small cubes.
• In a bowl combine the flour with both sugars and cinnamon, add in the butter, using fingers mix until it resembles coarse meal.
• Sprinkle the mixture over the top of the filling then using hands press/pack down firmly (omit the whipping and 2 teaspoons sugar).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Roll the pie crust out into a 12-inch circle. Place the crust on a large baking sheet. Top the crust with apple slices and cranberries. Drizzle lemon juice over top. Sprinkle sugar over top. Pull up the sides of the crust slightly and roll over, covering the filling by about 1 inch.
• Bake 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.

Steps:

• Make the topping: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spread the potato chips on a baking sheet and bake until warm, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and add the granulated sugar and cinnamon; toss to coat. Let cool, then crush the chips into small pieces with your hands.
• Combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, almonds and salt in a large bowl. Work in the butter with your fingers until clumpy. Work in the crushed potato chips until just combined; set aside.
• Make the filling: Toss the apples, cranberries, granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, flour, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl until well coated. Divide among eight 8-ounce ramekins and sprinkle with the topping.
• Transfer the ramekins to a baking sheet and bake until the topping is golden brown and the filling is slightly thicker and bubbling, 50 to 60 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Shred 2 apples (about 1 cup); squeeze dry. Whisk 1 1/4 cups flour, 3/4 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon each baking powder and salt, and 1/2 teaspoon each baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg in a large bowl; add 1 cup dried cranberries. In another bowl, whisk 2 eggs, 1/2 cup each vegetable oil and sour cream, and 1 teaspoon vanilla; stir in the shredded apples. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined, then divide the batter among 3 buttered mini loaf pans (about 6 by 3 inches each). Bake at 350 degrees F until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool on a rack.

Steps:

• For the crust: Whisk the flour, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, work the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse cornmeal mixed with pea-sized bits of cold butter. (If the butter gets too soft, refrigerate the mixture for 10 minutes before proceeding.) Use a fork to stir in the egg and water mixture until the dough just comes together. (If the dough is dry, add up to 1 tablespoon more cold water.) Divide the dough into two equal-sized disks, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 1 hour.
• For the filling: Peel, halve and core the apples. Cut each half into 4 wedges and place in a bowl with the lemon juice and cranberries, tossing to combine. Add the sugar and toss again to combine evenly.
• Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the apple mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to simmer, about 2 minutes. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low, cooking until the apples soften and release most of their juices and the cranberries have burst, about 7 minutes.
• Strain the apple mixture into a colander set over the bowl, shaking it to collect as much of the juice as possible. Pour the liquid back into the skillet, add the cinnamon and ginger, and simmer over medium heat until thickened and lightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Return the reduced juice and the apple mixture to the bowl and toss to recombine. Chill the filling until it cools completely, at least an hour and up to 2 days.
• To assemble the pie: On a lightly floured surface, roll each disk into an 11- to 12-inch circle. Lay each dough circle between two pieces of parchment or wax paper on a baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.
• Place a baking sheet on a rack positioned in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish with one of the dough discs and trim it to leave a 1/2-inch overhang on all sides. Stir the cornstarch into the filling and add it to the pan.
• Use a chef's knife, pizza cutter or fluted dough cutter to cut the second round into 1/2-inch thick strips. Lay strips of dough, evenly spaced, across the entire pie. Weave more strips of dough perpendicular through the previous strips to make a lattice or basket weave design across the entire pie. Trim the excess ends from the strips of dough. Pinch the bottom crust edge and lattice edge together, and flute the edge as desired. Brush the surface of the dough with egg and then sprinkle with sugar. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Bake the pie on the preheated baking sheet until the crust is golden, 50 to 60 minutes. If the edges begin to brown too fast, cover them with strips of aluminum foil. Let the pie cool 1 hour before serving. Once completely cooled, the pie keeps well at room temperature (covered) for 24 hours, or refrigerated for up to 4 days.

Steps:

• For crust:
• Blend flour, sugar and salt in processor. Add butter and process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Using on/off turns, blend in enough ice water by tablespoonfuls to form moist clumps. Gather dough together and divide into 2 pieces. Flatten into disks; wrap each disk in plastic and refrigerate at least 1 hour. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated. Let dough soften slightly at room temperature before rolling out.)
• For filling:
• Position rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 375°F. Combine apples, dried cranberries, flour, brown sugar, lemon juice, nutmeg and cloves in large bowl. Toss to blend.
• Roll out 1 dough disk on floured surface to 12-inch round. Transfer to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Spoon filling into crust, mounding slightly in center. Dot with butter. Roll out second dough disk on floured surface to 13-inch round. Drape dough over filling. Trim dough overhang to 1/2 inch. Press top crust and bottom crust together at edge to seal. Fold edge under; crimp edge decoratively. Cut four 2-inch-long slits in top crust to allow steam to escape.
• Bake pie 45 minutes. Cover crust edges with foil to prevent overbrowning. Continue to bake pie until crust is golden, apples are tender and juices bubble thickly through slits, about 55 minutes longer. Cool pie on rack. Cut into wedges.

Steps:

• Make pastry:
• Blend together flour, butter, shortening, and salt in a bowl with your fingertips or a pastry blender (or pulse in a food processor) just until mixture resembles coarse meal with some roughly pea-size butter lumps. Drizzle 3 tablespoon ice water evenly over mixture and gently stir with a fork (or pulse) until incorporated.
• Squeeze a small handful: If dough doesn't hold together, add more ice water, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, stirring until incorporated. Do not overwork dough or pastry will be tough.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 4 portions. With heel of your hand, smear each portion once or twice in a forward motion to help distribute fat. Gather all dough together (using a pastry scraper if you have one) and form into a 5-inch disk. If dough is sticky, dust lightly with additional flour. Chill, wrapped in plastic wrap, until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Make crumble topping:
• Stir together flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Blend in butter with your fingertips until large clumps form, then stir in pecans. Chill until ready to use.
