Steps:
- 1. Prior to making the filling the pastry tart can be prepared and blind baked. I did that using parchment paper and pie weights to keep the crust from puffing up. I used a tart baking dish and the recipe from Arrowhead Mills Organic Pastry Flour.
- 2. Place the cranberries and about 1/2 cup water and honey in a small pot, over medium heat, and cook while stirring until berries pop. Lower the heat if it boils fast, and simmer about five or six minutes stirring frequently with a wooden spoon.
- 3. Add chopped apples and chopped dates and cook until softened, another five or ten minutes. It should thicken as it cooks and will as it cools too.
- 4. Stir in the vanilla and powdered ginger. Let cool for a while, and fill the baked tart and spread evenly, then cover with parchment paper and chill for about an hour, or overnight. We loved it served with real whipped cream!
