You almost have to put on blinders to avoid filling your basket. \u00a0In the frozen section, I stumbled on Nantucket Cranberry Pie, which looked a bit like upside down cake (theirs had the cranberry layer on top). But\u00a0given my pretty meh luck lately with their frozen desserts, I grabbed a bag of cranberries and said, I can make that.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s great about Nantucket Cranberry Pie is that it&#8217;s a cake. It has more in common with a fruit crisp or cobbler, with a layer of\u00a0cake batter on top of tangy, soon-to-be jammy\u00a0fruit. Putting it together is just a matter of layering chopped cranberries, nuts and sugar (and of course, butter), and then mixing the batter. The cake is\u00a0scented with a hint of almond extract, and in this case, just that 1\/4 teaspoon makes a big difference in flavor. \u00a0Adding more vanilla just isn&#8217;t the same. Sparkling sugar gives it a little holiday flair.<\/p>\n<p>My only tweak to the King Arthur Flour recipe was to use hazelnuts instead of walnuts. I&#8217;ve kinda had <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywaffle.com\/stage1\/2016\/11\/06\/brandied-cranberry-hazelnut-bars\/\">a thing for cranberries and hazelnuts<\/a> this year.<\/p>\n<p>Top it with a dollop of whipped cream.
