Instructions
- Make the crust: Whisk together flour and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, mixing until dough forms. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
- Make the filling: In a saucepan, combine cranberry sauce, sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened (about 2-3 minutes).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Gradually whisk the hot cranberry mixture into the egg mixture to temper the eggs.
- Pour filling into the prepared pie crust.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50-60 minutes, or until the custard is set and the crust is golden brown. Let cool completely before serving.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use homemade cranberry sauce. You can also add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the filling.
