Happy Thanksgiving - continued

Continued from Page 1.



1 package Pillsbury rollout pie crust (I don't make my own!)

In large bowl, mix together the following:
3/4 Cup organic sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1-1/2 tablespoon flour

Peel and slice up a bag of apples (about 12 small/medium apples). I used Mcoun this year.
Fold apples into sugar mixture.



Fold in 12 oz. bag of cranberries ( I used local organic cranberries)

Roll out the Pillsbury pie crust - one round goes into the bottom of a 12" glass pie plate. Prick the bottom with a fork and fill with the fruit.

I use small cookie cutters to cut out leaves from the round that will go on top.Lay on top crust and crimp the top and bottom layers together to form a tight seal.

I add leaf spines to the cutouts with a fork. And lay on top of crust for decoration. I then paint on an egg wash (egg yolk with a little water).
Bake in a 425 oven for 10 minutes, and then reduce temp. to 350 and bake for 30-40 minutes.

Fresh from the oven!

Enjoy!
