CRANBERRY APPLE TART

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375. Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• On a lightly floured counter, divided the dough in two. Use a rolling pin to roll out each piece of dough into a 10-in. circle about ¼ inches thick. Transfer the crusts to the prepared baking sheet (you may need to use 2 sheets). Set aside.
• Place the butter in a small, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high until melted. Mix in the cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg and brown sugar. Use a pastry brush to coat both crusts with some of the butter mixture; reserve the remaining butter.
• Arrange half of the apple slices over each crust, then brush the apples with the remaining butter. Sprinkle half of the cranberries over each tart. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the crust is lightly browned and the apples are tender. Let cool before serving.
