After adding half of the apple filling to the crust, I slide the cranberry sauce off the plate onto the first layer of fruit, gently broke it up with the back of a fork and spread fairly evenly, then added the rest of the apples. Turned out FABULOUS!!

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 disk Pate Brisee for Pies All-purpose flour, for surface

  • 6 ounces fresh or thawed frozen cranberries (1 1/2 cups ) 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup water 1 whole cinnamon stick

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour 3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar 3/4 cup old-fashioned oats 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon Coarse salt 1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

  • 1 1/2 pounds firm, ripe pears, such as Bosc or Bartlett, peeled, cored, and sliced into 1/2-inch wedges 1/4 cup granulated sugar Coarse salt 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1/8 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Directions

Make the crust: Roll out dough to a 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Fit dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Crimp edges. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the cranberry sauce: Bring cranberries, granulated sugar, water, and cinnamon stick to a simmer in a pot. Cook until cranberries are tender and start to burst and sauce is thick, about 25 minutes. Discard cinnamon stick. Let cool completely.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make the streusel: Whisk together flour, brown sugar, oats, ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cut in butter with a pastry cutter or rub in with your fingers until combined and mixture resembles coarse meal with some large pieces remaining. Refrigerate.

Make the filling: Mix together pears, granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, the flour, and lemon juice. Stir in cooled cranberry sauce.

Transfer filling to crust; top with streusel. Bake until filling is bubbling in the center and top is golden, about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Let cool.
