    Notes

    Ensure to bake just until the top layer starts turning golden brown.
    While baking, the cranberries bubble up and might drip, so place the ramekins/casseroles in a tray to catch the drip or place aluminium foil under them.
    Adjust sugar based on how tart and sour the cranberries are.
