DESCRIPTION

Iâ€™ll admit it has never occurred to me to make a cranberry pie, even though I adore cranberries. Every year, I buy a couple of bags of cranberries to not only make cranberry sauce but also to add it to other desserts like pies and cobblers. But I love the idea of making an entire pie of just cranberries! Bonus, cranberries have a lot of pectin in them, so they thicken the pie a lot by themselves, which is why there is less starch in the filling.
