Apple Cranberry Filling
0 Preheat the oven to 350 F and place a rack in the center of the oven.
2 Rinse the apple and dice it into 1" chunks removing the core. Add it into your baking dish and toss with the juice of half a lemon.
3 Sprinkle the apple with brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and a touch of salt and stir to combine. Finally sprinkle on 15 grams of flour and stir once more to combine.
4 Set aside while you make the streusel.
Streusel
6 In a medium bowl use a fork to stir together the soft butter, vanilla, cinnamon, sugar and salt. Pour in the flour and oats.
7 Using the fork again, rub the butter mixture into the dry ingredients until all of it has been fully mixed in. Then toss in the chopped pecans and mix once more.
Assemble and Bake
9 Rinse the cranberries and pack them in on top of the apple.
10 Clump the streusel and pack it over the fruit. It's ok if the whole thing is a bit mounded.
11 Place the dish on a baking sheet and into the preheated oven. Bake for 30 minutes until the fruit is bubbling and the streusel is golden brown. The main indicator should be that the cranberries are bubbling. You may need to bake longer if using a bigger baking dish but it should be about the same amount of time as long as your baking dish isn't more than 2" deep.
12 Once baked, remove from the oven and leave to cool for 5-10 minutes on a wire rack just so you don't burn your mouth.
13 To serve, optionally top with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a vanilla custard sauce.
