Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh cranberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar (for the batter)
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or round baking dish and set it aside.
Spread the fresh cranberries evenly across the bottom of the greased dish.
Sprinkle 1 cup of granulated sugar evenly over the cranberries, followed by the chopped walnuts.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, 1 cup of sugar (for the batter), and salt.
Add the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Pour the batter evenly over the cranberry mixture in the pie dish, using a spatula to spread it out if necessary.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the pie to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
