Cranberry and Apple Pie

I didn't know how this pie mixture would go as I have never used this product before. So with doubts in my heart, I chose to make the pastry using this kit.

I was somewhat surprised at having to add ingredients such as baking powder and I decided to forego the vinegar it says to add. I also did not wait for the base pastry to chill first. I pressed it into the container and then cooked it in a 220 deg oven. The pie top pastry was chilled tho. 

I made the filling from 8 green apples chopped, one cup caster sugar, one cup water, quarter cup of cherry liqueur and 1 packet of cranberries. I simmered these until the liquid reduced and the filling looked lush. To make sure all the liquid was set I sprinkled 1 tablespoon of gf plain flour over the mixture and stirred it in. Beautiful! 

This is the pie before the pie was placed in the oven. I sprinkled the top with raw sugar.

The finished pie is so yummy. You can eat it cold like a slice or heat it up and have it warm with ice cream.
