  2. Roll out your chilled pie crust and gently fit it into a pie dish. Crimp the edges as desired, creating a beautiful border for your pie.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the fresh cranberries, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Stir until the cranberries are thoroughly coated.
  4. Spoon the cranberry mixture into your prepared crust, mounding it high.
  5. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
