This Orange Cranberry Custard Pie comes together in about 5 minutes. Seriously. You just put ingredients in the food processor and turn it on. And then whip some cream to top it with. It is the easiest dessert to grace your Thanksgiving table. This easy recipe is low carb, keto, gluten-free, grain-free, sugar-free, and Trim Healthy Mama friendly.
I hope the rest of you like cranberries as much as I do because I still have two other cranberry recipes coming after this one. And then I'm done. Promise. But they just have such a beautiful color and vibrant flavor. And they are the only berry in season this time of year.
I love white serving pieces. They are so classic and timeless. I prefer to dress up my table with linens and flowers. They are more inexpensive to change out with the seasons. I collect white serving pieces in all shapes and sizes. I was thrilled when Emile Henry sent me this beautiful white 9-inch pie plate.
Custard Ingredients:
2 ½ cups fresh cranberries, divided
1 cup Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet (or my sweetener blend)
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp orange extract
4 oz cream cheese
3 eggs
Whipped Cream:
8 oz heavy whipping cream
1 tbsp powdered sweetener to taste
½ tsp orange extract
dried cranberries, optional
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350.
Combine 2 cups of the cranberries and the rest of the filling ingredients in a food processor. Process until smooth. Pour into a greased pie plate. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup cranberries on top.
Bake for 50 minutes or until the center only jiggles slightly. Cool completely.
Whip the heavy cream until peaks form. Add the sweetener and extract. Mix well. Spread on top of the cooled pie. Garnish with dried cranberries if desired.
Since this does not have a bottom crust you won't get perfect triangle slices. It's easier to just scoop some on the plate. Feel free to bake it in an 8x8 square baking dish if you prefer.
