Cranberry Indulgence Pie

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. 2

   In mixing bowl, combine sugars, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg.

3. 3

   Add orange zest and combine some more.

4. 4

   Beat in eggs at medium speed, one at a time.

5. 5

   Fold in the melted butter, then add the cranberries and beat at low speed.

6. 6

   I like to beat them just enough to crush some of the berries so the filling gets a little bit pink, but not too much--you want the berries whole in the filling.

7. 7

   Finally, fold in the pecans to blend evenly throughout.

8. 8

   Pour filling into pie shell.

9. 9

   Bake for 35-40 minutes.

10. 10

    Keep an eye on the pie.

11. 11

    The top may get a light brown meringue-y look.

12. 12

    That's ok--it's delicious and lightly brittle.

13. 13

    I use a cake tester or toothpick in the center to see if it has baked long enough to set.

14. 14

    A clean toothpick means it's done.

15. 15

    Allow the pie to sit about 15 minutes before cutting.
