Instruction

  • Crust may be prepared in advance and refrigerated until ready to use.
  • Prepare the All Butter Pie Crust: Perfect Pie Crust according to recipe instructions. Because this pie is a deep dish, not a regular pie, you are going to need 2/3 to 3/4 of the dough for the crust for this recipe.
  • Press the dough into the deep dish pie plate and shape the edging as desired.
  • You can freeze the extra for another use, such as making individual pot pies or something else small that doesn't need an entire pie crust.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F with the rack in the lower third.
  • Peel, core and slice the apples.
  • In a large bowl, combine the apples, cranberries, brown sugar, maple syrup, flour, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, salt, and lemon juice.
  • Place the filling inside the prepared pie shell.
  • Measure the flour and oatmeal into a food processor.
  • Pulse to combine and blend the oatmeal.
  • Add in the remaining ingredients: brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, butter, and pecans.
  • Pulse until a crumbly, mixture is achieved.
  • Dot the top with the sliced butter. Set aside until after the first bake cycle.
  • Cover the edges of the pie loosely using foil. Bake at 425 degrees F for about 35 minutes.
  • Then, reduce the temperature to 375 degrees F.
  • Remove the pie from the oven. Discard the foil. Sprinkle with the crumb topping.
  • Bake for an additional 45 - 60 minutes, or until the apples are tender, crumbs are browned and the filling is bubbly.
  • Let cool at room temperature for 3-4 hours before serving.
