A Delicious Ending to Your Christmas Dinner
I wanted a “Christmas pie” to be the finale for our Christmas prime rib dinner.
But what, exactly, is a “Christmas” pie?
So I think about what flavors represent the Christmas season (warm spices, sugary frostings, bright cranberries…). I decide cranberry orange flavored pie is the perfect ending to the prime rib dinner I traditionally serve.
The bright, acidic flavors of cranberry and orange balance the richness of a prime rib meal. The foundation of a key lime pie is the right medium for the cranberry orange flavors. It offers a sweet, creamy balance to their tartness and acidity. And who doesn’t love a graham cracker crust!
Assembling Cranberry Orange Pie
A food processor works great for creating the graham cracker crumbs and chopping the cranberries. A zesting tool makes it easy to create orange zest.
Then mix everything together in a mixing bowl and pour it into the baked graham cracker crust.
The chopped cranberries will float to the top as the pie bakes giving it a pretty color for serving. I like to garnish Christmas dishes with frosted cranberries to make them pretty.

My family raved about this pie. It truly is delicious and one of the easier pies to make from scratch. I hope you enjoy it!
