Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F
- Roll out your pie crust into a roughly 12 inch circle. Line the 10 inch tart pan or pie plate with the crust, pinching any excess from the edges. Place in the refrigerator to chill while you continue.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, sugar, and salt until light and fluffy. Be sure to scrape down your bowl as you work.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and scrape down the bowl. Mix in the flours and almond extract.
- Spread the mixture into the pie shell and top with the cranberries, pressing them into the filling slightly. Fit them in nice and snugly.
- Place the unbaked tart on a metal baking sheet (to catch any leakage) and bake for about 50-55 minutes until golden and firm to the touch.
- Allow to cool before carefully removing the tart from the tart pan, and dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
Notes
- I went all-out with the cranberries in this recipe, and as a result, you definitely notice their natural tartness in the final result.
- If you want something that leans a little less tart, I recommend using fewer cranberries and spacing them out a little bit more than I have here.
