Cranberry Custard Pie 🥧🍒
A festive pie that combines the tartness of fresh cranberries with a smooth, creamy custard filling. This dessert is perfect for the holidays or any special occasion! 🎄🍽️
Ingredients:
1 ½ cups fresh cranberries
1 unbaked pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
3 large eggs
1 cup heavy cream
¾ cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
1 tbsp cornstarch
Pinch of salt
Whipped cream for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9-inch pie pan with your unbaked pie crust and set aside. 🏠🔥
In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir well, and cook over medium heat until the cranberries begin to burst and the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes. 🍒🍯
Duration: 5-7 minutes
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth and combined. 🥚🥄
Duration: 3 minutes
Pour the cranberry mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly. Carefully pour the custard mixture over the cranberries. 🍰✨
Duration: 3 minutes
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the custard is set and the crust is golden brown. You can check the pie by inserting a knife into the center – it should come out clean. 🕒🥧
Duration: 40-45 minutes
Let the pie cool completely before serving. Top with whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence if desired! 🧁❄️
