Cranberry Pie

Інгредієнти

2 cups fresh cranberries or frozen cranberries (if using frozen cranberries, do not thaw first)

1 ½ cups granulated sugar, divided

½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans

2 large eggs

½ cup (1 stick) salted butter, melted and cooled slightly

¼ cup shortening, melted and cooled slightly (I use Crisco brand)

¼ teaspoon almond extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

For serving: whipped cream or vanilla ice cream

Preheat oven to 350°F. Arrange the cranberries in the bottom of a greased 10-inch pie plate. Sprinkle the cranberries with ½ cup of the sugar; toss to coat. Add the chopped nuts; toss to combine.

In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the eggs and the remaining 1 cup of sugar. Add the melted butter and melted shortening. Beat to combine. Mix in the almond extract. Add the flour and mix just until combined.

Using a rubber spatula, drop the thick batter in mounds on top of the cranberry mixture. Use the spatula to spread the batter in an even layer to cover the fruit and nuts.

Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the topping is completely cooked through, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If you start with frozen cranberries, you will likely need to add about 10 minutes to the total baking time.

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
