Crustless Cranberry Pie

Intrigued? So was I:@) This Crustless Cranberry Pie couldn't be easier to make and even if pie baking intimidates you, you can make this one folks. While some might say it has more of a cake consistency, it is chewier and moister than cake. This is an old time type recipe that's mixed with a spatula or spoon and the very thick batter needs to be spread out in the pie plate. As with most cranberry/nut items, I think a little freshly grated orange rind would be a nice addition too.
This pie has a bit of pucker power and is best served with coffee or tea.
