Cranberry-Orange Crumb Tart image

After my sister took the family to the local cranberry festival, my mom bet me that I couldn't make a holiday pie out of cranberries and oranges. Considering the pie was gone before the holidays arrived, I think I won! -Heather Cunningham, Whitman, Massachusetts

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tart turned out soggy. I think I may have added too much liquid to the filling.

I had some trouble getting the crumb topping to stick to the tart crust. I ended up adding a little bit of water to the topping.

This tart was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the filling.

I'm not a huge fan of cranberries, but I loved this tart! The orange flavor really balances out the tartness of the cranberries. I will definitely be making this again.
