Cranberry Bakewells

31st December 2011 By Urvashi Roe

Cranberry Bakewell Tarts

I know that Bakewell Tarts traditionally have a jam filling but I think they work really well with compotes and curds too.  This tart is a great one to make at Christmas time as cranberries are so readily available in the supermarkets.  I’ve used a simple compote for the one below but you can also […]
