Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh cranberries
  • 2 medium apples peeled, cored and chopped
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • zest and juice from one orange
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine all of the ingredients in a medium saucepan.
  2. Cook over medium-low heat for 18 to 20 minutes, until the fruit is tender and the liquid has thickened. The sauce will thicken as it cools. Serve chilled or at room temperature. 

Notes

  • You can make the cranberry sauce a day or two in advance, store in the refrigerator and bring to room temperature just prior to serving.
  • You can omit the ginger, if desired, but it won't be as flavorful.
  • Freeze the cranberry sauce in a freezer safe container for up to three months. Defrost in the refrigerator before serving.
