Pastry for single-crust pie (9 in.)
4 cups fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed
2 cups sugar
3/4 cup water
4 large egg yolks, room temperature
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
MERINGUE:
4 large egg whites, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sugar

Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in butter and extract. Pour into crust., For meringue, in a large bowl, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar and vanilla on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff peaks form. Spread over hot filling, sealing edges to crust., Bake at 350° until golden brown, 18-22 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour; refrigerate for 1-2 hours before serving.

The meringue on this pie was a little too brown for my liking, but the filling was delicious.

This pie was a little too tart for my taste, but I think that's just because I'm not a big fan of cranberries. Otherwise, it was a well-made pie.

I've made this pie several times now, and it always turns out perfect. The crust is flaky and buttery, the filling is tart and tangy, and the meringue is light and fluffy. It's a real crowd-pleaser.
