Ingredients

Crust:

Filling:

  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 3/4 cup dried cranberries, coarsely chopped
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 orange, zested
  • 1/2 cup pecans, chopped

Directions

Blend crust ingredients together. If making small tartlets, divide into 24 small balls. If making large size tarts, divide into 12 balls. Cover with plastic wrap and chill. Press each ball onto bottom and up sides of tart tins and chill until ready to fill.

Meanwhile, bring orange juice to boil in a small saucepan. Take off heat and add chopped cranberries. Cover and let soak for 15 minutes. Then drain well and blot with paper towel; set aside.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

Mix all the remaining ingredients well, except the pecans, until smooth. Then add the pecans and cranberries. Divide the filling evenly among the tart tins and bake for approximately 35 minutes for the small tarts and 45 minutes for the larger tarts or until the crust is golden brown.

    I made these on a whim and they are so delicious! Like cranberry pecan pie : Pressing the dough into the muffin tins was the most difficult part, but it was worth the work. Making two more batches tonight for two parties. Yum!!!!

    It was a little tuff lining the mini muffin cups with the pastry dough. The result showed you don't have to be too fussy. These were really good and had a great presentation.

    Good tarts. Just a bit too sweet from the cranberries. Need more pecans. Overall, yummy!
