Time 1h30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

6 ounces butter (1 1/2 sticks)
3 ounces granulated sugar (about 1/2 cup minus 1 tbsp)
1 large egg
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
1/4 teaspoon orange oil (optional)
9 ounces unsifted cake flour (cake flour = 2 cups minus 1 tbsp, all-purpose = 2 cups) or 9 ounces all-purpose flour (cake flour = 2 cups minus 1 tbsp, all-purpose = 2 cups)
12 ounces cream cheese, softened
3 ounces confectioners' sugar (about 3/4 cup unsifted)
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
1 pinch table salt
8 ounces dried cranberries
1 cup orange juice
4 ounces granulated sugar (about 1/2 cup plus 1 tbsp)
1 pinch table salt
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons orange juice
1/2 tablespoon finely grated orange zest

Steps:

  • Cream butter and sugar (in a stand mixer, or with a hand-held electric beater) on low speed until well-mixed. Add the egg in three doses, about 1 tbsp at a time; wait until each is fully incorporated, and scrape down the sides of the bowl before adding the next. Add salt, orange zest and optional orange oil. Sift flour, and add to bowl. Mix on low speed about 20 seconds, until a loose dough is formed. Wrap in plastic and pat into a flat disc. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  • Roll dough out to about 1/8" thick. Place dough into a 12" tart pan. Dock the bottom of the crust with a fork or rolling docker. Cover dough with parchment or foil and fill with beans or pie weights. Bake in preheated 350°F oven 15 minutes. Remove the weights and bake another 10 minutes until lightly browned. Cool to room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, beat together cream cheese, confectioner's sugar, grated ginger and salt. Beat with paddle attachment until fluffy and well mixed. Refrigerate until needed.
  • Combine cranberries, orange juice, sugar and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Let boil for 2 minutes, then cover tightly and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Whip heavy cream and sugar until thick and holding fairly stiff peaks. Fold in orange juice and orange zest.
  • Spread cream cheese evenly over bottom of tart crust with an offset spatula, filling the corners. Pour the cranberries over the cheese and spread evenly. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkling of diced, candied ginger.

Categories     Desserts     Pies     Tarts     Fruit Tart Recipes

Time 2h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons ground ginger
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon almond extract
4 egg yolks, at room temperature
1 egg, at room temperature
1 (12 ounce) package fresh cranberries
1 cup white sugar
1 large orange, zested and juiced
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
  • Combine flour, sugar, ginger, and salt for crust in a small bowl. Mix in melted butter, vanilla extract, and almond extract until mixture is combined and comes together in a thick dough.
  • Press dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared tart pan. Place the tart pan on a large baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Beat egg yolks and egg together in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Set aside.
  • Combine cranberries and sugar in a large saucepan. Cook over medium heat until cranberries pop and sugar is dissolved, 8 to 10 minutes. Pour mixture into a blender. Add orange juice, orange zest, vanilla extract, and salt. Leave the lid vent open on the blender; do not seal without having a way to steam to vent, and cover the lid with a kitchen towel.
  • Blend on low speed until mixture is smooth and thoroughly pureed. Pour the warm mixture gradually into the eggs, whisking constantly.
  • Pour curd back into the saucepan and cook over low heat until mixture is thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until thoroughly combined, ensuring each piece of butter has thoroughly melted before adding the next. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve. Discard solids. Pour strained curd into the prepared crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until curd is set around the edges and jiggles slightly in the center, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature before removing from the tart pan, 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries will give your bread the best flavor. If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Zest the orange before juicing it. The zest of the orange will add a bright citrus flavor to your bread. Be sure to use a microplane or fine grater to get the zest.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that your bread is cooked through.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing it. This will help the bread to hold its shape.

Conclusion:

Tart Cranberry Orange Bread is a delicious and festive quick bread that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be made with fresh or frozen cranberries. The bread is moist and flavorful, with a perfect balance of tart and sweet. It is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
