This recipe was given to me by a friend, and it is the best balance of sweet and tart I’ve tasted in a cranberry pie. It can be served with vanilla ice cream or yogurt.
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 2 cups fresh cranberries
- ½ cup chopped pecans
- 1 ¼ cups white sugar, divided
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs, slightly beaten
- 1 ½ teaspoons almond extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Spray an 8-inch deep dish pie pan with cooking spray. Pour cranberries, pecans, and 1/2 cup sugar into the pie pan.
Step 2
Combine flour, remaining 3/4 cup sugar, melted butter, eggs, and almond extract in a bowl. Mix with an electric beater until creamy and white in color. Pour over cranberry mixture in the pie pan.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until slightly crusty on the edges, lightly set in the middle, and light golden in color, about 35 minutes. Don't overbake; you do not want to dry it out to a cake-like consistency.
