This Nigella recipe is taken from the Christmas Special of her Channel 4 programme Nigella Bites. These recipes are simple and stress-free. As Nigella Says: "Christmas food is the best sort of food because it's about proper, unpretentious home cooking. Feasting isn't about formality: it's about providing friends and family with good things to eat."
1.Preheat the oven to 160C/Gas 3/325F.
2.Melt the 50g of butter in a wide saucepan and add the 3 tablespoons of sugar and the cranberries. Cook over a fairly high heat until they begin to pop a bit.
3.Take the pan off the heat while you make the batter.
4.Combine the flour, baking powder and sugar in a large bowl and add the eggs, melted butter and orange oil.
5.Mix to a smooth batter and line the bottom of a 2 pint round pie dish and then cover with the cranberries, dot with the remaining half of the mixture not worrying too much if the cranberries are not covered completely.
6.Sprinkle over the flaked almonds and demerara sugar and bake in the oven for about 45 mins to an hour, by which time the top will be golden brown and set.
