1 cup packed brown sugar
-
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
-
1/4 cup butter, melted
-
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
-
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
-
3 tablespoons grated orange zest
-
1 teaspoon baking powder
-
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
-
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar, divided
-
1/8 teaspoon salt

3 cups coarsely chopped cranberries

TOPPING:
-
1-1/2 cups sugar
-
1/2 cup orange juice
-
2-1/2 cups whole cranberries

Optional: Orange zest strips and whipped cream
Directions
-
1.
Place egg whites in a large bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350°.
-
2.
In a large bowl, beat brown sugar, cream, melted butter, vanilla and egg yolks until well blended. In another bowl, whisk flour, orange zest, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar and salt. Add chopped cranberries; toss to coat. Gradually add to sugar mixture, mixing well. (Batter will be stiff.)
-
3.
Add remaining cream of tartar to egg whites; with clean beaters, beat on medium speed until soft peaks form. Fold into batter. Transfer to a greased 9-in. springform pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 45-50 minutes.
-
4.
Meanwhile, for topping, combine sugar and orange juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently; cook until sugar is dissolved, 2-3 minutes. Add cranberries; return to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until berries pop, stirring occasionally, 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat; cover and keep warm.

5.
When pudding tests done, place springform pan in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Spoon cranberry mixture over top. Bake 10 minutes longer.

6.
Cool pudding on a wire rack 10 minutes. Loosen sides from pan with a knife; remove rim from pan. Cool at least 1 hour before serving.

7.
If made ahead, pudding can be warmed in a 350° oven for 10 minutes. If desired, top with orange zest and serve with whipped cream.
