Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
• 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 2 cups chopped green tomato
• 2 cups peeled and chopped tart green apples
• 1 pastry for a 9-inch double-crust pie
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
• 0.5 cup chopped raisins

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine tomatoes, apples, brown sugar, raisins, vinegar, butter, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and cloves together in a large saucepan; cook and stir over medium-low heat until bubbling and slightly reduced in volume, about 25 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and cool slightly, about 15 minutes.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Press 1 pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish.

Step 3

Pour green tomato filling into the pie crust; top with the second pie crust, crimping the edges together to seal.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Decrease oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and continue baking until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
