Cranberry Walnut Pie

My cousin Gretchen made this pie for Thanksgiving last year and I had to have the recipe. I have made it a couple of times since then, and it is always a hit. It has a perfect combination of tart and sweet....in my opinion.

Dry Ingredients
1 Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust
2 heaping cups Fresh (or frozen) cranberries
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Wet Ingredients
1 large egg
1/3 cup sugar
3/4 cup melted butter (6 Tablespoons)
3 TBSP all purpose flour

Directions
Unfold and place pie crust in pie plate, fold edges under and crimp.
Stir together dry ingredients and pour into pie crust.
Whisk wet ingredients in a bowl and pour over dry ingredients. (Mixture will be thick)

Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for 30 more minutes.
