Homemade Cranberry Sauce Recipe
Equipment
- 1 Propane Stove
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar for sugar-free substitute with sweetener of choice
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup orange juice
- zest of one orange
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
- pinch of salt to taste
For additional flavors based on preference, the following ingredients pair beautifully for the ultimate homemade cranberry sauce recipe:
- Seasoning: cinnamon, nutmeg, or allspice
- Texture: pecans, walnuts, or raisins
Instructions
- Start by rinsing cranberries under cold water and discard any bruised or damaged ones, and drain when clean. Removing damaged cranberries helps ensure a clean and flavorful sauce
- In a medium saucepan, add sugar, water and orange juice, and bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to help dissolve the sugar.
- Once sugar has dissolved, combine the cranberries, orange zest, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt.
- When mixture reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 15-20 minutes or until it reaches your desired thickness. During this time. the cranberries will begin to burst, releasing their natural juices and flavors.
- Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, and taste the sauce during the process to determine flavor. If you prefer it sweeter, add a bit more sugar to suit your taste.
- Once the sauce is ready, remove it from the heat and let it cool. As it cools, the sauce will continue to thicken.
- Once cooled, refrigerate until ready to serve.
