Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, combine the fresh cranberries, granulated sugar, flour, orange zest, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss gently to coat the cranberries evenly.
Pour the cranberry mixture into the unbaked pie crust. Dot the top with the small pieces of butter.
Cover the pie loosely with aluminum foil to prevent the crust from burning.
Bake for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for another 30-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly.

For an extra festive touch, you can add a lattice top crust.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Delicious with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
If fresh cranberries are not available, frozen cranberries can be used. Thaw them slightly before using.
