Time 1h

Yield 1 pie

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 10-inch unbaked deep-dish pie shell or 1 unbaked 9-inch deep dish pie pastry
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
4 tablespoons firmly-packed brown sugar, divided
1/4 cup cold butter
1/3 cup flour
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 (16 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce
3/4 cup walnuts

Steps:

Set oven to 425 desgrees.
Bake the empty pie shell for 8 minutes; remove from the oven.
Reduce the heat to 375 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until fluffy; gradually beat in the sweetened condensed milk until smooth.
Add in the lemon juice; pour into the baked pastry shell.
In a small bowl, combine 2 Tbsp of the brown sugar and the cornstarch, mix well (if you prefer a sweeter filling, add in more sugar).
Stir in the cranberry sauce; mix well.
Spoon evenly over the cheese mixture in the pie shell.
In a medium bowl, cut the cold butter into the flour, and the remaining 2 Tbsp brown sugar until crumbly.
Stir in the nuts.
Sprinkle evenly over the cranberry mixture.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, until golden; cool.
Serve at room temperature, or chill thoroughly.
Refrigerate any leftovers.
***NOTE***when baking the pie, it is advised to place a heavy piece of foil underneath the pie plate to avoid any spills, as it sometimes tends to bubble over the sides.

Tips:

To ensure a flaky crust, use cold butter and ice water. Keep the dough cold until ready to use.
Don't overmix the pie dough; too much gluten will make it tough. Mix until the ingredients just come together.
If the cranberries are frozen, thaw them before using. Fresh cranberries can be used as well.
To prevent the cranberries from sinking to the bottom of the pie, toss them with a little flour before adding them to the filling.
The zest of one orange adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the filling. Don't skip it!
Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will give the filling time to set.

Conclusion:

This cranberry cheese crumb pie is a delicious and festive dessert perfect for the holidays. The sweet-tart cranberries pair perfectly with the creamy cheese filling and crumbly topping. With its stunning appearance and irresistible flavor, this pie is sure to be a hit at any gathering. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this cranberry cheese crumb pie a try!
