Last Update: February 1, 2024

Cranberry sauce might play a supporting role on Thanksgiving, but for the rest of the long weekend, consider this condiment the breakout star for brightening up your leftovers. We’ve got three ideas to make the most of this vibrant sauce.

2 premade (9-inch) pie crusts
1 cup Pacific Foods Organic Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425°F. Lay crusts flat on a floured surface and cut out 4, 4-inch circles from each round. Dollop 1 to 2 tablespoons of cranberry sauce in the center of 4 rounds and gently spread, leaving an ½-inch border around the edges. Top with remaining pie crust rounds and crimp edges with a fork. Cut slits on the top of each crust, then brush with an egg wash and sprinkle evenly with the sugar. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, or until golden. Let cool slightly before serving.
