Cranberry Tart
Ingredients
Directions
The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point. The book gives no cooking times either; the times in the steps were added in transcription, so check for doneness rather than trusting the clock.
Prepare
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a bowl, mix the cranberries and sugar until well combined.
Pour the cranberry mixture into the pie crust.
Bake and serve
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the cranberries are bubbly and the crust is golden.
Let cool before serving.

What each ingredient does
- Cranberries
- Provide the tart fruit base and juices that cook down into the filling.
- Sugar
- Sweetens the tart and balances the cranberries' sharp acidity.
- Pie crust
- Holds the filling in shape and browns to form the base.
The step that matters
Let cool before serving. As the filling cools, its juices thicken and set. Cutting it while hot may produce a runny filling that does not hold its shape.
