APPLE CRANBERRY PIE

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup honey

1/4 tsp salt
3 cups fresh cranberries
2 cups diced, peeled apples
Pastry for 2-crust pie

Turn oven on to 425 degrees F.

In a medium pot, combine sugar, honey, flour, butter, orange zest, cinnamon and salt. Cook 2 minutes, stirring until sugar dissolves. (This could also be done in a microwave oven using a glass measure cup or bowl.)

Add the cranberries and apples and boil for 5 minutes or until the berries burst. Cool.

Pour cooled filling into a pastry-lined 9-inch pie pan. Arrange strips of pastry lattice fashion over filling. Trim edges and flute.

Bake 35 to 40 minutes.
