Combine cranberries, sugar, flour and allspice in large bowl. Mix apples, then add brandy and vanilla.
Remove one crsut disk from refrigerator. Let stand at room temp 5-10 minutes. Sprinkle with flout. Roll out on lightly floured surface to 12 inches in circle. Gently fold in half and transfer to 9 inch pie plate. Unfold and press down.
Add apple filling, mounding slightly in center.
Roll out second disk as before. Fold, place on pie filling, unfold and press down on edgers. Flute edges.
Stir yolk and cream. Brush over top. Cut slits in top crust. Bake about 50 - 65 minutes, depending on type of apples using. Transfer to rack; let stand 1-3 hours.
