Two-Crust Cranberry Pie
 

Pastry for 2 crust pie
2 cups raw cranberries
1 cup water
1 cup sugar
1 3/4 tablespoons corn starch
1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
2 teaspoons butter

In medium saucepan cook cranberries in water till skins pop. Strain and save the juice in pan. Mix sugar and cornstarch together, then add to juice. Cook mixture till it thickens and bubbles, stirring constantly. Stir in walnuts, cranberries, and butter.

Pour into pie shell , add top crust, and bake at 400 F for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 F and bake for 45 minutes more or until the crust is nicely browned.

Thanks for posting this. I wonder how the cranberry mixture would taste with an apple crisp style topping.

Happy Thanksgiving!

So does this really come from Lion House cookbook? My mother used to have that book. Maybe I should look for a used copy. It had a few good things in it.

And Marsupial, given your lack of love for the pie crust, just make it apple crisp style. I'd be tempted to add apples, though. Or cherries. I"m not sure how cranberries would do straight up like this. Probably good, but I'm skeptical for some reason.

Maybe I could do a Dutch crust for the top.

Great recipe, thanks! I am fond of desserts, just recently found this good list, very easy and cute https://momblogsociety.com/31-amazin...or-your-child/
