This is a great buffet dessert or even after the turkey or prime rib Thank Full meal that's just around the corner.

 

Cranberry Nut Tart

• 3 cups (12 oz bag) rinsed cranberries
• ¾ cup chopped pecans 
• ½ cup sugar
• ¾ cup melted butter
• 2 large eggs slightly beaten
• 2 tbls orange juice
• 1 cup sugar  ***
• 1 cup all purpose flour

 

 Butter and lightly flour a deep 10 inch pie plate or a 10 x 2 quiche dish.

 

Place cranberries in the bottom of the pan, sprinkle with the pecan pieces, then sprinkle the ½ cup sugar.

 

Now in a bowl combine the melted butter, eggs, juice and the 1 cup of sugar. Add the flour and whisk till smooth. Pour mixture over the cranberries.

 

***If I have any oranges on hand I sometimes grate maybe a tsp of the orange rind into the wet ingredients. 

Bake at 325 degrees for approximately 45 minutes. Insert the old toothpick in the center to check for doneness.

  

Let cool…………………add a scoop of really good vanilla ice cream or not.

 

 

Enjoy
