Ingredients

Crust

1 ½ cup AP Flour
4 ½ teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 stick cold cubed butter (½ cup)
3 tablespoon plus 1 ½ teaspoon ice water

Filling

¼ cup sugar
¾ teaspoon cinnamon
4 teaspoons AP flour - plus more for the work surface
4 medium apples peeled, quartered, cored and thinly sliced
½ cup fresh cranberries
1 egg yolk beaten with 1 tablespoon heavy cream for egg wash
1 tablespoon turbinando or any coarse sugar

Instructions

Combine flour, sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse to blend. Add the butter and pulse until it forms coarse crumbs.
Add water and pulse until dough forms.
Shape the dough into a 1" thick round. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour.
Place a pizza stone or sheet pan in the oven and preheat oven to 400°F for 45 minutes.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator about 15 minutes before using a rolling pin to slightly soften it.
Place the dough round between two sheets of lightly floured parchment paper and roll dough into a 13" round circle. Remove the top sheet of parchment.
Sprinkle the 4 teaspoons AP flour onto the dough, leaving a 2" border.
In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon for the filling.
Place apples and cranberries on top of the dough, and then sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon mixture on top.
Fold the border up and over the apples to make a rim. Tightly crimping every 2 inches or so.
Use a pastry brush and brush pastry with the egg wash over the border.
Sprinkle turbinando sugar on top of that.
Transfer the crostata, still with the parchment underneath, to the oven, sliding it, with the paper, directly onto the stone.
Bake until the crust is golden brown and the apples are bubbling. About 35 - 40 minutes.
Serve warm.
Note: This can be made hours ahead before serving and just reheated before serving.
