Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh cranberries
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
Rinse the cranberries under cool water and pat them dry. Spread the cranberries evenly across the bottom of the prepared pie dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, and salt until well combined.
Beat the eggs in a small bowl until foamy, then add them to the flour mixture along with the melted butter, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. Mix until you have a smooth batter.
Pour the batter evenly over the cranberries in the pie dish, ensuring all the berries are coated, but do not stir.
Place the pie dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature on a wire rack. The pie will firm up as it cools.
If desired, dust the top of the pie with powdered sugar just before serving for a decorative touch.
Slice and serve the pie on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Enjoy!
