  • Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes
  • Yield: Serves about 8 people

Ingredients

  • Fresh cranberries
  • Chopped pecans
  • Sugar
  • Softened butter
  • Almond extract or vanilla
  • Eggs
  • All-purpose flour
  • Salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C) and butter a 9-inch pie plate.
  2. Place fresh cranberries in the prepared pie plate and sprinkle chopped pecans on top, followed by ½ cup sugar.
  3. In a mixing bowl, beat softened butter with 1 cup sugar until smooth. Add almond extract or vanilla and eggs one at a time, mixing until fluffy. Gradually add flour and salt until just combined.
  4. Spread the batter over the cranberry mixture evenly.
  5. Bake for 45-50 minutes, checking doneness with a toothpick—it should come out with a few moist crumbs.
  6. Let cool slightly before serving warm with ice cream or whipped topping.
