Another pie recipe that won first place in a contest. This is my father and brothers' first choice in a pie at the holidays. It's so good, you'll find yourself getting up in the middle of the night to sneak another piece! Ingredients:
2 cups sugar |
1/4 cup cornstarch |
2 cups fresh cranberries (or frozen) |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 (16 ounce) package frozen blueberries |
double crust pie crust |
1/2 teaspoon powdered sugar |
Directions:
1. In large saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, cranberries, lemon juice and blueberries.
2. Cook over medium-high heat until mixture boils, stirring constantly.
3. Reduce heat; simmer until cranberries pop and mixture is very thick.
4. Cool 15 minutes.
5. Preheat oven to 425ยบ.
6. Place one pie crust in bottom of pie plate.
7. Pour mixture into crust.
8. Top with 2nd crust (I like to make a lattice top.).
9. Bake for 25-35 minutes or until golden brown. (Place foil or cookie sheet on lowest rack during baking to guard against spilling.).
10. Cover edge of crust with strips of foil if it's getting too brown.
11. Cool 2-3 hours before serving.
12. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if you'd like.
