Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 375. Place pie crust in 9" glass pie plate as directed on box.

In a large bowl, gently mix apples and cranberries. In a small bowl, mix remaining ingredients. Add dry ingredients to fruit; toss to coat. Pour into crust-lined pan.

In a small bowl, mix all topping ingredients except butter and pegans. With pastry blender or fork, cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in pecans. Sprinkle evenly over filling.

Bake 45-55 minutes or until apples are tender, and crust and topping are golden brown. After 15-20 minutes of baking, cover crust edge with strips of foil to prevent excessive browning.
