Steps:
- In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water until smooth. Stir in cranberries. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally. Cool for 15 minutes. Pour into baked pastry shell; set aside. In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over remaining 4 tablespoons water> Let stand for 5 minutes. Cook and stir over low heat, stirring until gelatin is completely dissolved. Gradually stir in eggnog and rum. Refrigerate for 5 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Fold in whipped cream. Pour over cranberry layer. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until set. Sprinkle with nutmeg.
Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a tart flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the eggnog and pie crust. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
- Make sure the eggnog is cold. Cold eggnog will thicken when it is mixed with the cornstarch, creating a smooth and creamy filling. If you use warm eggnog, the filling will be thin and runny.
- Don't overmix the pie dough. Overmixing the pie dough will make it tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
- Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. The pie is done baking when the crust is golden brown and the filling is no longer jiggly. If you insert a toothpick into the center of the pie, it should come out clean.
Conclusion:
Eggnog cranberry pie is a delicious and festive holiday dessert. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The creamy eggnog filling is perfectly complemented by the tart cranberries, and the flaky pie crust adds the perfect finishing touch. This pie is sure to be a hit at your next holiday gathering.
