Step 1

Place crusts on 2 rimless baking sheets and chill while preparing filling.

Step 2

To make filling: using a food processor, place 1/3 of the apples and chop using on/off turns into small bits. Transfer to a large saucepan. Repeat chopping the remaining apples.

Step 3

Place all the dried fruit in the processor, using on/off turns until fruit starts to stick together - add to apples. Stir in next 13 ingredients (sugar - sea salt) and simmer over medium low heat until thick (10-15 minutes). Remove from heat. Transfer filling to a large bowl and cool completely (1 hour).

Step 4

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Step 5

Transfer 1 crust to a 9 inch glass pie dish, leaving dough overhang. Spoon filling to crust.

Step 6

Cut second crust into 1/2 inch wide strips. Arrange 6 dough strips on top of filling, spacing 1 inch apart. Place 6 dough strips at 45 degree angle to firs t strips, forming a diamond lattice pattern. Trim strips even with the bottom crust. Fold crust edge and strips in; press edge with tins of fork to seal. Whisk cream and sugar together and brush mixture over lattice crust.

Step 7

Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temp to 350 degrees F and continue baking for 50-60 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling. Transfer to rack and let cool completely.
