Instructions

Cranberry Curd Filling

  • Cook cranberries, orange juice, zest, and sugar in a pot over medium heat for 15-20 mins, until cranberries burst and soften.
  • Blend the mixture with an immersion blender (or transfer to a blender). Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove pulp.

  • Add sliced butter and pulse until dough forms a sticky ball.
  • Press dough into a 10” tart pan; freeze for 10 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake crust with parchment and weights for 25 minutes.
  • Remove weights, dock crust with a fork, and pour in cranberry curd.
  • Bake tart for 20-22 minutes, then chill in the fridge for 4-8 hours before serving.
