Instructions
- Make the Base. Add orange juice, water, and honey to a medium saucepan and bring ingredients to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and add cranberries, orange zest, and salt. Cook for 10-12 minutes uncovered, stirring occasionally.
- Let the Sauce Thicken. Once cranberries begin to pop, turn off heat and mash remaining cranberries to your desired consistency. Let sit at room temperature until chilled and store in refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
- Cranberries: Fresh and frozen cranberries work equally as well in this recipe. Do NOT get dried cranberries.
- Sweetener: Feel free to use maple syrup, or agave nectar to make this recipe vegan.
- Tools: You can use a microplane grater instead of chopping the orange zest.
- Prep-Ahead: Make the entire recipe up to 4-5 days in advance.
- Storage: Bring the leftover cranberry sauce to room temperature then seal in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
