Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the 1 pie crust in a 9 inch tart pan, pressing it into the edges and trimming any excess. Prick the bottom with a fork.

  2. Step 2

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the 3 eggs and 0.75 cup sugar until smooth and pale, about 2 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in the 0.5 cup orange juice, 1 tbsp orange zest, and 0.5 cup heavy cream until fully combined.

  4. Step 4

    Pour the filling into the prepared crust. Bake until the filling is set but slightly jiggly in the center, about 30 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Let the tart cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
