- Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray bottom of large rimmed baking pan with nonstick baking spray. From lemon, squeeze 2 tablespoons juice. In large bowl, toss apples and cranberries with lemon juice.

- On lightly floured surface, unwrap, unroll and stack 2 crusts on top of each other. With rolling pin, roll crusts to 18 x 13" rectangle. Transfer crust to prepared pan, pressing into corners. Dough should drape over edges of pan by about 3/4 inch; trim edges if necessary. Evenly sprinkle cornflakes over crust; spread apple mixture over cornflakes. Dot with butter.
- On lightly floured surface, repeat with remaining 2 crusts, rolling to 16 x 11" rectangle; place over filling. Fold edges of bottom crust over edges of top crust; with fingers, crimp crust edges tightly to seal.
- In small bowl, with whisk, beat egg and milk. With small brush, evenly brush top of crust with egg mixture. With paring knife, cut twelve ½" slits in top crust.
- Bake pie 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes or until filling bubbles and top is golden brown; cool on wire rack 45 minutes. Cut pie into 3 strips lengthwise, then cut each strip into 6 pieces to serve. Can be served warm or cool completely to serve at room temperature.
