Ingredients

  • 1 recipe Flaky Butter Pie Crust
  • 3 oz. raspberries, halved if large
  • 1/4 cup leftover cranberry sauce
  • 1/2 tsp. cornstarch
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • Granulated sugar, for sprinkling
  • 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar, for glaze if desired

Flaky Butter Pie Crust

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp. sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Directions

    1. Step 1Prepare pie crust recipe, shape into 2 rectangles instead of 1 disk and refrigerate as directed.
    2. Step 2Heat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Working on lightly floured surface, roll 1 rectangle pie dough to 11- by 14-inch rectangle (about 1/16 inch thick). Cut out twelve 2 1/2- by 4-inch rectangles, rerolling and cutting scraps as necessary and using second rectangle dough as needed. Arrange 6 rectangles on prepared baking sheet. Using a fork, prick holes in remaining 6 rectangles.
    3. Step 3In bowl, toss raspberries with cranberry sauce and cornstarch. Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon cranberry mixture in center of each rectangle on sheet, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges. Lightly brush border with some egg. Top with pricked rectangles and press edges with a fork to seal. Refrigerate 10 minutes.
    4. Step 4Brush tops of tarts with remaining egg and sprinkle with granulated sugar. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool. If desired, whisk confectioners’ sugar with a little cold water until drizzling consistency and drizzle over tops.
  • Flaky Butter Pie Crust

    1. Step 1In food processor, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles pea-size crumbs.
    2. Step 2Add 3 tablespoons ice water, pulsing until dough forms small clumps and holds together when squeezed (if necessary, add up to another tablespoon water, 1 teaspoon at a time). Do not overmix.
    3. Step 3Transfer dough to piece of plastic wrap and shape into 1-inch-thick disk. Wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 2 days.
