Christmas Cape Cod Recipes

NANTUCKET CHRISTMAS CRANBERRY PIE {TRADITIONAL AND GLUTEN FREE RECIPES}

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the filling ingredients and stir to combine. Pour into a generously buttered 10" pie plate.
• Combine the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat until smooth. Add the eggs and almond extract and beat again until fluffy. Add the flour and beat once more.
• Spread the thick batter over the cranberry mixture in the pan. I used a small cookie scoop to quickly dollop spoonfuls across the top of the pie. It doesn't need to look perfect.
• Bake for 40-50 minutes, test doneness with a toothpick, just to make sure the topping is cooked through. Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!

CHRISTMAS CAPE COD

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Stir in sugar until completely dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes. Add cinnamon sticks, reduce heat to low, and let simmer for 8 minutes. Remove from heat and let steep for 1 hour.
• Remove cinnamon sticks and pour syrup into a squeeze bottle.
• Mix ginger ale, cranberry juice, vodka, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon syrup mixture together in a 12-ounce highball glass. Stir or shake thoroughly. Fill with ice to the top of the glass. Serve.

PERFECT TEN BAKED COD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place 2 tablespoons butter in a microwave-safe bowl; melt in microwave on high, about 30 seconds. Stir buttery round crackers into melted butter.
• Place remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a 7x11-inch baking dish. Melt in the preheated oven, 1 to 3 minutes. Remove dish from oven.
• Coat both sides of cod in melted butter in the baking dish.
• Bake cod in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from oven; top with lemon juice, wine, and cracker mixture. Place back in oven and bake until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 10 more minutes.
• Garnish baked cod with parsley and green onion. Serve with lemon wedges.
