Pastry for Single-Crust Pie (see recipe below)
-
4
cups
fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed
-
1/2
cup
packed brown sugar
-
1/2
cup
chopped nuts
-
3
tablespoons
all-purpose flour
-
1/2
teaspoon
ground cinnamon
-
1
egg
-
1/2
cup
granulated sugar
-
1/2
cup
all-purpose flour
-
1/3
cup
butter, melted
-
Ice cream or whipped cream (optional)
Directions
- Prepare the pastry. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to form a 12-inch circle. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate, being careful not to stretch pastry. Trim to 1/2 inch beyond the edge of the pie plate; fold under the extra pastry. Crimp the edge. Set aside.
- For filling, in a large bowl, mix cranberries, brown sugar, nuts, the 3 tablespoons flour, and the cinnamon. Spoon mixture into pastry shell.
- In a mixing bowl, beat egg until thick. Gradually add granulated sugar and beat until well combined. Beat in the 1/2 cup flour and the melted butter. Pour batter over cranberries. To prevent overbrowning, cover edge of pie with foil.
- Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 25 minutes; remove foil. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes more or until top is golden. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream, if you like. Makes 8 servings.
Note
- To make pastry cutouts to trim the top of the pie, roll out pastry scraps about 1/8 inch thick and use small cutters to form leaf shapes. Place cutouts on a baking sheet and bake in a 375 degree F oven for 4 or 5 minutes or until the cutouts are lightly browned.
