CRANBERRY SAUCE

 

CRANBERRY SAUCE

Ingredients

1 (12 oz) bag fresh cranberries

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup orange juice 

1/2 cup water

1/2 tsp orange zest (optional)

1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional)

Directions:

In a medium saucepan, combine the orange juice, water, and sugar. 

Stir and bring to a simmer over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.

Add the cranberries to the saucepan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries start to pop (about 10-12 minutes).

Stir in the orange zest and cinnamon (if using) and continue cooking until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.

Remove from heat and let the sauce cool to room temperature. It will continue to thicken as it cools.

Enjoy!!
