Instructions
Preparation Directions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries and sugar over medium heat. Cook until the cranberries burst and the mixture is slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, orange juice, and zest. Slowly add the melted butter, stirring continuously.
Fold in the cranberry mixture until well combined.
Pour the filling into the prepared tart shell and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake for 30–35 minutes or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly golden.
Let the tart cool before slicing and serving.
Notes
Serve with a dollop of whipped cream for extra treat! You can also add a sprinkle of powdered sugar for presentation.
