Maple Orange Cranberry Sauce
Report
This is not your run-of-the-mill cranberry sauce. The flavors are so bright and absolutely delicious. The Loon's not even a fan of cranberry sauce, and he couldn't stop eating this when I first made it. You can also make a day before the big feast, of weeks or a month or so, too, if you freeze it. Holiday Side Dish Perfection!

Ingredients
- 12 oz. cranberries fresh or frozen, about 3 cups
- 1 cup maple syrup pure
- ⅓ cup orange juice
- ⅓ cup cranberry juice not cocktail
- 1 teaspoon orange zest plus more for garnish
Instructions
- Combine the cranberries, maple syrup, orange juice, cranberry juice and orange zest in a medium-size saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring occasionally, just until the cranberries burst, about 5 – 10 minutes.
- Turn down the heat to medium-low and continue cooking over lower heat until the juice is thick, about 10 minutes.
- Turn off the heat. Allow to cool, and then chill in the fridge until ready to serve. It should have a nice jelly-like consistency.
- Garnish with extra orange zest.
Notes
- Fresh cranberries can usually be found at well-stocked supermarkets in the produce section in plastic bags.
- Use additional orange zest, if desired. We usually go with about 1 tbsp.
- Be sure to use pure maple syrup, not pancake syrup!
- Can be made up 1 one day in advance. Keep in the fridge until ready to serve. Can be frozen for up to 1 month.
