Bake until the cheese is melted and the bread is toasted. Serve with a side of marinara sauce for dipping.
Ingredients:
Pastry:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small cubes
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 large egg
1-2 tbsp ice water
Filling:
1 cup cranberry sauce
1/4 cup orange juice
1 tsp orange zest
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp cornstarch
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
Instructions:
Make the pastry: In a food processor, pulse together the flour, butter, sugar, and salt until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add in the egg and pulse until the dough comes together. If the dough is too dry, add in 1-2 tablespoons of ice water. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Prepare the filling: In a small saucepan, combine the cranberry sauce, orange juice, orange zest, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
Assemble the tarts: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pastry to 1/8 inch thickness. Use a 3-inch round cookie cutter to cut out circles of dough. Press the dough into a mini tart pan, trimming off any excess. Repeat with the remaining dough. Fill each tart shell with about 1 tablespoon of the cranberry filling.
Bake: Bake the tarts for 15-18 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing and letting them cool completely on a wire rack.
Serve and enjoy: These Christmas Mini Tarts are best served at room temperature or slightly warmed. Dust with powdered sugar before serving for an extra festive touch.
