Ingredients

  • 4 cups fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed
  • 4 cups chopped peeled tart apples
  • 1-1/2 cups chopped dried apricots
  • 1-1/2 cups golden raisins
  • 1 medium unpeeled navel orange, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup each red and green candied cherries
  • 2-3/4 cups sugar
  • 1 cup apple juice
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup orange marmalade
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 3/4 teaspoon each ground allspice, cinnamon and nutmeg
  • Pastry for double-crust pie (9 inches)

Method

  • In a Dutch oven or large kettle, combine the fruit, sugar, apple juice, butter, marmalade and spices. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 50-60 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool completely or refrigerate for up to 1 week.
  • Line two 9-in. pie plates with pastry; trim and flute edges. Divide filling between crusts. Cover edges loosely with foil. Bake at 400° for 20 minutes. Remove foil.
  • Bake 20-25 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on wire racks.
