Cranberry Raisin Pie

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup vegetable oil
5 tablespoons cold water

Filling
1-1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup orange juice
2-2/3 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
1 cup raisins
Milk, optional

In a bowl, combine flour and salt. In another bowl, combine oil and water. Gradually add to flour mixture, stirring with a fork until blended.

Shape into a ball; divide dough in half so one ball is slightly larger than the other. Roll out larger ball between two sheets of waxed paper to fit a 9-in. pie plate. Transfer pastry to pie plate; trim pastry even with edge.

Set aside. For filling, combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a saucepan; gradually stir in orange juice until smooth. Stir in cranberries and raisins; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook and stir over medium heat until thickened, about 5 minutes. Pour into crust.

Roll out remaining dough between two sheets of waxed paper. cut slits in pastry or use a 1-1/2-in. holly leaf cutter to make a design. Place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edges.

Brush pastry with milk if desired. Bake at 400° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate leftovers. Makes 6-8 servings.
