Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Roll out your refrigerated pie crust on a floured surface until it's about 1/8-inch thick.
- Carefully transfer the crust to a 9-inch pie pan, pressing it into the edges and trimming excess dough.
- Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights. Par-bake for 20 minutes until lightly golden.
- In a medium saucepan, combine cranberries and orange juice over medium heat. Cook for 4-5 minutes until cranberries burst.
- Transfer the mixture to a blender. Blend until smooth, then strain the puree through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, collecting about 2 cups.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks, cranberry puree, and orange zest until smooth.
- Pour the custard filling into the cooled pie crust and bake for 30-35 minutes until the center is slightly jiggly but set.
- Let the pie cool at room temperature for 2 hours, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
- Before serving, garnish with whipped cream, fresh cranberries, or colorful sprinkles if desired.

Notes
Strain the cranberry puree well for a smooth filling. Let the pie cool completely before refrigerating for perfect texture.
