Homemade Low Carb, Sugar Free Cranberry Sauce Recipe
This delicious low sugar cranberry sauce recipe is made with Splenda Stevia and is the perfect way to cut down on sugar.
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup Splenda Stevia sweetener
- 3 1/2 cups Cranberry fresh or frozen
- 2-3 tablespoons orange juice fresh
- 1/2 teaspoon orange zest more to taste if cutting out the orange juice, freshly grated
- 1/3 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract if desired
- orange peel for garnish, if desired
- cinnamon sticks for garnish, if desired
Instructions
- Combine the water and Splenda Stevia and place on a stove on medium-high heat. Once the Splenda Stevia is dissolved, add in 3 cups of berries, reserving 1/2 cup for later if you love whole berries in the sauce.
- Boil for 10-15 minutes until the berries start popping and dissolving into the mixture. Crush them even further using a wooden spoon against the side of the pot. Cook until the mixture is thickened and has reduced down into a lovely sauce.
- Add in the whole cranberries and the orange zest at this point and cook for another 5-6 minutes.
- Once the large berries are softened, remove from the heat. Stir in the cinnamon and optional vanilla adjusting to taste.
- Store in a closed container in the fridge and serve chilled.
