Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- For the filling, toss cranberries, maple syrup, orange juice, zest, and vanilla into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, let it simmer for 10-12 minutes until it thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
