Instructions
- Add the rinsed cranberries to a medium saucepan.
- Add the water, orange juice, sugar, honey, lemon juice, cherry juice (if using), cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir to combine.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 10-12 minutes, the cranberries will have burst and some of the liquid will have reduced.
- Remove from heat and let it cool completely. There will still be some liquid, it will continue to thicken upon standing.
- Transfer to the fridge and let it cool completely for 2 hours. You can also store it in an airtight container and serve up to 5 days later.
Notes
- Pro Tips:
- Storage:
- Nutritional information is an estimate and is per serving. There are 8 servings in this recipe.
- Cherry Juice- I use 1 tbsp. of juice from a jar of Maraschino cherries.
- Additions: Blueberries, orange or lemon zest, 1/2 tsp vanilla, raisins, pecans, maple syrup, diced apples/pears make great additions to cranberry sauce!
- Brown Sugar can be used instead of white as well, it'll add a subtle molasses flavor.
- Leftovers are great on biscuits, sandwiches or sliders! (My Dinner Rolls make great slider buns as well!) It's also great when swirled into cottage cheese!
- Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
