Mincemeat Cranberry Pie image

I've had a number of cranberry mincemeat pie recipes over the years, & this is one I've worked on over the past 25 years or so. In a a pinch, I've substituted 3 cups of canned whole-berry cranberry sauce for the first 4 ingredients.

Time 1h

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pie crust, for 10-inch pie
1 (12 ounce) bag cranberries
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 (28 ounce) jar mincemeat
1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup almonds, chopped

Steps:

  • Prepare or have available one baked, 10" deep dish pie crust.
  • If using the bag of cranberries, combine them in a large saucepan, with the water & sugar & cornstarch.
  • Bring to boil & cook until berries begin to pop & mixture begins to thicken.
  • At this point, which ever is used--fresh cranberries or canned--mix the cranberries with the mincemeat, & pour into the baked pie shell.
  • Cut the butter into the flour until the mixture is coarse, then mix in the sugar & nuts.
  • Sprinkle this mixture over the pie, then bake 45-50 minutes, or until browned.
  • Best served warm with ice cream.
