...into the holidays. A practice pie (okay, so I wanted pie) apple-pear with brandy-soaked raisins and cranberries. The vent hole began as a heart shape and the top crust was a bit thin at the edges, so juices leaked through. But the crust is flaky and crisp - 25%WW, and the fruit held its shape and is quite flavorful, so no complaints.

Happy Holidays.

Very tasty and the inclusion of 'snockered' fruit was inspired by dabrownman's recent examples. Makes a subtle, yet appealing addition.
Happy Holidays to you and your crew!

I like your idea of soaking the dried fruit in brandy. Spiced rum also works pretty well.
