Cranberry Cheesecake Pie
THIS is my FAVORITE PIE CRUST RECIPE you won’t believe how easy it is.
You can make pie crust or use the type you unroll and place in a pie dish, or you can use the type that is frozen and pre shaped. This would also be great with a graham cracker crust as well.
You do not pre-bake the pie crust, simple add the filling to the pie crust and bake all together.
Mix half the cranberries to the mix, then add the remaining cranberries to the top of the pie.
When the pie bakes it puffs up a bit, but settles as it cools.
Be sure to cool completely then place in the fridge until it’s cold.
This cranberry cheesecake pie is great for Thanksgiving or Christmas or to cheer up a cold and gloomy cold day,

This sounds great and looks beautiful and festive. Great idea to use cranberries in a cheesecake. I would never have thought of that.

Oh, my!!

What a pretty pie! I think I might have to try making this for our Thanksgiving dinner.
This is gorgeous and may even be genius!!! Cranberries and cheesecake… I'm pleasantly surprised.
Bridget baked a beautiful Cranberry Apple Pie for Tidymom's Party and now I see here your beautiful Cranberry Cheesecake. Love the red and pink colours and I'll just bet it tastes twice as good as it looks.
As always Diane, your photos are fabulous.
Oh that looks really good. I never thought about cranberries and cheesecake together. Although I think you can put almost anything with cheesecake and it will be yummy lol.
Never mind – I see the question was answered. Thanks again!
Looks yummy. Are the whole cranberries on top the other half of the bag? Did you add them in the beginning or after it had been baking for awhile? Would love to know so I can try this recipe!
