Cranberry Apple Pie III

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups white sugar
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups cranberries
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 5 apples – peeled, cored and sliced
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
• 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie shell
• 1 cup dry bread crumbs
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup butter, melted

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

In a large saucepan, whisk together white sugar, 1/4 cup flour, and salt. Stir in cranberries and maple syrup. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. When mixture comes to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Stir apples into simmering mixture, and continue to cook for 5 minutes, or until apples are tender. Remove from heat, and stir in walnuts. Set aside and allow to cool to room temperature.

In a medium bowl, combine breadcrumbs, 3/4 cup flour, brown sugar, and melted butter. Mix well. Pour cooled apple mixture into pie shell and sprinkle crumb topping over apple filling.

Bake in preheated oven until topping is golden brown and filling is bubbly, about 30 minutes. Serve warm.
