While the buttery, maple-scented filling is inspired by classic pecan pie, we swap in toasted walnuts and add chopped fresh cranberries for a beautiful pop of color and tart flavor contrast that cuts the sweetness.
Like a pecan pie with cranberries pretty much sums it up. But it's a refreshing twist on the classic and probably much healthier too. I've made it twice now and loved it both times. I don't do store-bought pie crust, so I used a pat-in pie crust recipe from America's Test Kitchen and that worked fine.
Enjoyable and tart. It's like a pecan pie with cranberries, so you feel like you're eating more healthily!
