Ingredients

Scale

8 oz cream cheese (softened)
1 cup sweetened condensed milk
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 cups cranberry sauce
1 cup flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup melted butter
1 tbsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp orange zest

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare two 9-inch pie pans by fitting in the crusts and placing them on a foil-lined baking sheet.
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and orange zest; mix until glossy. Divide evenly between the pie crusts.
In another bowl, combine cranberry sauce with cornstarch, brown sugar, and cinnamon; spoon over the cream cheese layer carefully.
For the crumb topping, mix flour, brown sugar, and pecans; pour melted butter over and stir until clumps form. Sprinkle generously over both pies.
Bake for 55-60 minutes or until golden on top. Allow cooling at room temperature before chilling for at least four hours.
