Servings: 8 Slices
Calories: 298kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon powder Can also replace with pumpkin pie spice
- 2 Eggs Large
- ½ cup Butter Unsalted, Melted, Should not be boiling hot or else the eggs will scramble
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Orange extract Optional, Can also replace with orange zest
- 2 cups Cranberries Fresh, Washed, Patted Dry
Toppings
- 2 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- ¼ cup Cranberries Fresh, Washed, Patted Dry
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together sugar, flour, cinnamon.
- Add eggs, butter, vanilla extract, orange extract (optional) and mix until combined. Don't over-mix!
- Stir in cranberries until evenly distributed. The pie batter will be very thick.
- Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 9-inch round glass pie dish very well with cooking spray; set aside. I used a glass pie dish; baking times may vary if using metal.
- Pour batter in a greased pie dish (9 inch) and use a spatula to spread it out.
- Sprinkle sugar on top.
- Press the remaining cranberries on top.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 35-40 minutes or until edges are set and top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Some people in my family prefer a gooey center and like to under-bake slightly. They remove it from the oven at 30-33 minutes or when an inserted toothpick in the center comes out with a few moist wet crumbs.
- Remove from oven and let it cool.
- Then, use a sharp knife to cut slices. Enjoy with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Mix in other extracts or fresh herbs for a different flavor profile.
- Eggs must be at room temperature because they blend together the best this way.
- Make sure you are using unsalted butter to keep this pie from becoming too salty.
- You must use fresh cranberries. These cannot be replaced with dried or frozen.
- Read additional tips and variations above.
- Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
