Vegan Apple Cranberry Slab Pie

vegan pie

Thank you The Veg Life for the recipe!

Ingredients

Pie Crust:

  • 12 Tbsp vegan margarine (very cold)

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 Tbsp sugar

  • ⅓ cup vegetable shortening (very cold)

  • 6 Tbsp ice water

Filling:

  • ¾ cup sugar

  • 2 Tbsp flour

  • 3 apples (peeled, cored, and sliced ¼ inch thick)

  • 2 cups raspberries

  • 1 cup cranberries

  • ¼ cup orange juice

  • ½ tsp nutmeg

  • ½ tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Pulse the ingredients for the dough in a food processor and then place them in plastic wrap, chilling for a few hours. 

  2. Combine all the ingredients for the filling in a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer for 10 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the juices are thickened. 

  3. Roll the dough thinner than you would for a traditional pie and line the pan, coming up on the sides for about ½ inch. Spread the filling evenly over the dough. Use cookie or pie cutters to make shapes and place them randomly over the filling. 

  4. Lightly brush with almond milk and generously sprinkle it with sugar. 

  5. Bake at 375°F for about 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crisp. 

  6. Allow it to cool before serving.
