Maple Pecan Cranberry Pie

Note that 1 cup of cranberries provides almost 6% of the vitamin K daily dosage, and 1 cup of pecans provides 5%.  Depending on your diet, it’s worth considering timing your INR test before consuming so it doesn’t throw off your test results.

Tips

  • Can do entirely maple or corn syrup (meaning, 1 cup), if you don’t have one of them
  • Make sure the cranberries are fresh (not frozen), as frozen will lead to a very wet pie
  • You may want to put tin foil over the edges, as they can brown up too fast. If you do, put it on for the first 25 minutes, and take it off for the last 25.
