Cranberry-Orange Pie with Cornmeal Streusel Topping

Since my pre-teen years of pie making, I've adapted my cranberry pie to feature a streusel topping instead of a lattice crust. I'm smitten with the rustic slightly crunchy cornmeal streusel and it's so simple to pull together and garnish the pie. I probably don't have to tell you, but this tangy pie is best enjoyed with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a large bowl, toss cranberries with orange zest, orange juice, sugar and melted butter. Pour into pie shell.
