Recipe Instructions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Press 1 pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate.

Step 3

Pour filling into pie crust; top with remaining pie crust. Crimp crust edges together to seal.
