Ingredients

• 1 pre-made or homemade, 9-inch pie crust
• 1.5 cups fresh cranberries
• 2 large apples (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced)
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cup rolled oats
• 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 0.33 cup all-purpose flour (for crumb topping)
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold, cut into cubes)
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges if desired.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cranberries, sliced apples, granulated sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Toss until the fruit is evenly coated.

Step 3

Transfer the fruit mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 4

For the crumb topping, mix the rolled oats, brown sugar, flour, and salt in a medium bowl. Add the cold butter pieces and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 5

Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the fruit filling.

Step 6

Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Step 7

Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours to set the filling before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
