I ran off for a brace of days.  I didn’t truly become anywhere, precisely stayed abode in addition to worked on my never ending listing of things to do. I didn’t get everything done, but I made a dent.  In add-on to my pile-o-chores, I started getting recipes together for Thanksgiving.  I kitchen-tested some homemade rolls which are fantastic.  (Recipe coming afterward this week) I fifty-fifty pulled the crock pot out in addition to made a pot roast which volition also live posted afterward this week.  And, lastly but non least, I made pie No. 46 – Apple, Cranberry & Currant Crumb Pie!  I can’t believe at that spot are solely 6 to a greater extent than pies to go.  I intend we’re almost to move into the nut stage of pie making, non that the whole affair wasn’t nutty to laid out with

I establish this recipe on Simply Recipes and tweaked it precisely a bit.  The ingredients seemed perfect for the lastly class of a Thanksgiving meal.  You tin sense of savour the tart apples, juicy cranberries, brandy soaked currants, and the sweetness crunchy topping.  The other element that truly stands out is the orangish zest.  All the flavors truly come upwards through in addition to all together they make a beautiful presentation.

First yous bespeak to soak the currants inwards brandy for a to the lowest degree an hr or until they are plumped.

While they’re soaking, mix upwards a unmarried unbaked pie crust inwards a deep dish ix or 10 inch pie plate.  Refrigerate crust acre preparing the filling.

Spread the topping to encompass the pie.  Place the pie on a foil lined baking canvass to grab whatever juices that bubble over.

Bake at 375 degrees for 55-60 minutes on the bottom one-half of the oven.  Cover alongside foil if the top begins to chocolate-brown also quickly.  If yous utilisation a night chocolate-brown saccharide the crumb topping volition live darker.  I used calorie-free chocolate-brown saccharide because that’s what I had inwards the cabinet.

Juicy!  Allow the pie to cool to room temperature.  Serve slightly warm, cooled or refrigerate until needed.
