Notes & Options:
There are lots of ways to modify this cranberry pie to spice it up, down or just change it to suit your palate. You can try:
– Adding dried cranberries to make it sweeter. Using dry cranberries instead of fresh fulfills this function well.
– Add 1/2 tsp each of nutmeg and ginger if you want it holiday spicy-like.
– Half the cranberries if you find them too tart, although that’s what most people like about using fresh cranberries, the tartness combined with sweet.
– Omit the cranberries and instead use a fresh, homemade cranberry topping to top the sliced bread with.
Make it Healthy – Replace the sugar with granulated sweetener and make your own low carb pie crust instead of the store bought one. Replacing this one ingredient (sugar) will turn this recipe into a healthy, sugar-free snack instead of a dessert.
