How to Make Fresh Pomegranate Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare your pie crust (either homemade or store-bought).
  3. In a large bowl, combine the pomegranate seeds from both the red and yellow/green pomegranates.
  4. Add the sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and zest. Gently toss to coat the seeds.
  5. Pour the pomegranate mixture into the pie crust.
  6. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly and set.
  7. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly and prevents a messy serving experience.
  8. Once cooled, garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of powdered sugar (optional).
  9. Slice and serve your spectacular pomegranate pie!
