Filling
- 675g of fresh cranberries
- 225g of whole berry cranberry sauce
- 225g dried cranberries
- 115g white sugar
- 35g flour
- 1tbsp orange juice
- 1/2tsp salt
Short crust Pastry (You will need 2 crusts- one for the base and one for the top)
- 125g plain flour
- Pinch of salt
- 55g of butter cubed
- 30-45ml cold water
- Egg Wash- (1egg beaten, 1tbsp of water)
For the Pastry
Put the flour and salt in a bowl and add cubes of butter. Then rub in the butter with your fingertips, until your mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Next, with a knife stir in enough cold water so that the dough binds together.
Finally wrap your dough in cling film and chill for 10-15 minutes. Roll out your piecrusts, placing one in the bottom of your pie dish and the other aside for later.
Filling
Firstly, you will need to fire up your wood fired oven to its optimum temperature. Then leave your oven to cool, maintaining the temperature at 180 °c.
For the filling, put all of the ingredients in a bowl and stir. Leave to rest for 5 minutes. When your filling is ready spoon into your pie dish.
Next, you will need your other pastry crust. For a lattice effect, slice your pastry into strips and place on top of your pie. Alternatively, if you’re after a classic looking pie, simply place the rolled out crust on top of your fillings. You can crimp the edges or make slits in the top, depending on how you want your pie to look. Brush the top of your pastry with egg wash.
Now you’re ready to bake your pie! Cover the edges with foil, leaving the top uncovered. Place into your wood fired oven and bake for 40 minutes. After 40 minutes take off the foil and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden.
Now all you have to do is patiently wait for your pie to cool (if you can), then serve. We suggest lots of cream or ice cream if you really want to indulge.
