Directions: |
Directions:Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 400°.
To make the filling, in a large pot, stir together the apples, cranberries, crystallized ginger, sugar, salt, flour and lemon juice over medium heat until the cranberries burst and the apples soften. Remove from heat, stir in walnuts and let filling cool completely. Place thawed round pie crust onto a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. When filling has cooled spoon into the center of the dough leaving a 1-1.5 inch space near the end to make a fold-over. Fold the ends onto the filling carefully to make a very shallow crust which will prevent the filling from spilling over. Pinch the ends and flatten onto the filling to follow the form of a circle. Sprinkle with sugar and bake until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling, about 25-30 minutes. Carefully transfer the crostata to a wire rack and let cool for 1 hour before serving. Serve each slice with sprinkled powdered sugar, blackberries and vanilla ice cream/whipped cream. |
