Excellent, easy recipe. <br />Friends and family favorite. <br />Great for someone who doesn’t like to bake!

I found this recipe to be an easy to pull together, interesting non traditional use of cranberries.  Full disclosure I subbed pecans and vanilla extract as I didn’t have the called for items so I can’t fairly judge this recipe true to taste.  I added 15 mins to bake time. The starch doesn’t brown but at the scheduled time it was still too loose for my liking. I used a glass pan which should result in quicker cooking time but regardless I went much longer. I would describe the outcome as being almost bread pudding like. Probably won’t make again but was a pleasant 20 mins of my afternoon to try something different. 

Too sweet even though I added an extra cup of cranberries and halved the topping.  However, it was very easy to make and is a different play in cranberries.  Seems more like a spoon bread or fruit crumble than pie.

I love this pie. I have made it for at least the last 4 years.

I had a 4-lb. bag of frozen cranberries to use up and was looking for ways to use them besides just cranberry sauce.  Then I came across this unusual "pie."  Adding the zest and juice of an orange to the cranberries was a nice touch.  I was dubious about no bottom crust and how it would slice as a pie, but even though it was a bit messy, the taste was fabulous. It was all so easy, I started to doubt that it would be any good, but it was super delicious!  <br />

This pie was a huge hit for thanksgiving!  Family raved how good it was and it was the only pie of 3 eaten.  We also topped the cranberries with orange zest and sprinkled it with orange juice.  Delicious and definitely a keeper!

I added a bit of orange zest. Topping is like crispy shortbread - absolutely love this pie. I've made it several times - a hit for the holidays

This pie is great for Thanksgiving breakfast.
