Apple Cherry Pie


I absolutely love to make pies and eat them, but Brandon and I have decide to try and eat a little more healthy so the recipe below uses healthier ingredients.

Pie Crust:
1/2 c. coconut oil
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1/2 c. white flour
1/2 c. wheat flour
1/4 c. ice water

Put in your mixing bowl coconut oil, sea salt and flour's. Cut all the ingredients today and then add the water gradually. Mix well then added the water till all the ingredients come together and form a nice ball. Then flour your surface and roll out for you pie tin. This recipe makes 1 good size pie crust.

Apple Cherry Pie Filling:
4 apple pealed & sliced up
2 cups of pie cherries
1/3 c. flour
1 Tb. corn starch
1/2 c. demerara cane sugar
1/4 c. honey

This is the amount of apples and cherries I used, but you may need to use more or less depending on your pie pan. I mixed the apples & cherries with the flour, corn starch & cane sugar. Then pour the filling in the pie crust. Drizzle the honey over the filling.

Crumb topping:
1/4 c. butter
1/2 c. flour
1/2 c. demerara cane sugar

Mix topping together well and pour on top of the pie. You can sprinkle with cinnamon if you want, which I guess I didn't do.

Bake at 350 degrees for 1 1/2 hours or till it is nice and browned and filling is bubbling. Let it cool and enjoy.
