  • 1/3 cup honey, plus more if you like it sweeter
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add all ingredients to a medium saucepan and stir to combine.
  2. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, then reduce to simmer.
  3. Continue cooking for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cranberries pop and sauce begins to thicken.
  4. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Serve immediately or transfer to an air-tight container and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Notes

  • If sauce thickens too much, stir in water 1 tablespoon at a time to thin it out until it reaches your desired consistency.
