Crustless Cranberry Pie


The Cranberry, or as I like to think of it ~ nature's ruby!  This little power fruit is packed with all kinds of excellent benefits!  Lots of phyto-chemicals that support good heart, immune and anti-cancer health!  

Before I knew anything about that, I bought them simply because I liked them!  Below are a few reasons why I enjoy them!  Oh, they keep well in your freezer too!!

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups cranberries
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 eggs
1 teaspoon almond extract

DIRECTIONS:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease one 9 inch pie pan.
  2. Combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Stir in the cranberries and the walnuts, and toss to coat. Stir in the butter, beaten eggs, and almond extract. If you are using frozen cranberries, the mixture will be very thick. Spread the batter into the prepared pan.
  3. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 40 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted near the center comes out clean. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice
