\n1\t<\/span>cup PICS dried cranberries<\/strong>
\n1\t<\/span>tablespoon PICS unsalted butter<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Crust<\/strong>
\n1.<\/span>In large bowl, whisk flour, sugar and salt. With pastry blender or fingertips, cut in butter until pea-size crumbs form. With wooden spoon, slowly stir in 3\/4 cup ice water until dough forms; gently knead dough in bowl and form into ball. Shape dough into 2 disks, 1 slightly larger than the other. Wrap disks with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Filling<\/strong>
\n2.<\/span>Adjust oven rack to lowest position; preheat oven to 375\u00b0. Spray large rimmed baking pan with baking spray. Place corn flakes in large zip-top plastic bag; with hands, crush corn flakes. You should have about 1 cup. In small bowl, stir sugar, corn starch, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Peel, core and cut apples into 1\/2-inch pieces (about 9 cups). In large bowl, toss apples with lemon juice. Add sugar mixture and cranberries; toss until apples are well-coated.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3.<\/span>On lightly floured surface, roll larger dough disk into 13 x 18-inch rectangle; transfer to prepared pan, draping over edges by about 3\/4-inch. Sprinkle corn flakes evenly over crust; spread apple mixture over corn flakes and dot with butter.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4.<\/span>On lightly floured surface, roll remaining dough disk into 11 x 16-inch rectangle; place over filling. Fold top crust under bottom crust; crimp crust edges tightly to seal.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5.<\/span>In small bowl, whisk egg and milk; brush over top of crust. With paring knife, cut 12 (1-1\/2-inch) slits in top crust. Bake slab 1 hour or until filling bubbles and top is golden brown; cool on wire rack 2-1\/2 hours to serve warm, or cool completely, cover and refrigerate up to 3 days. Cut slab into 18 pieces.
