Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your ingredients and prepare a deep dish pie pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine diced Honey Crisp apples, frozen cranberries, brown sugar, granulated sugar, orange juice, corn starch, and kosher salt. Gently stir and pour into the prepared pie pan.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix unsalted butter, oats, flour, cinnamon, ginger, and salt until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
