Fresh Cranberry Sauce

Share

This recipe adds orange juice, apples, pecans, and cinnamon to fresh cranberries to make a sweet, yet slightly tart side dish. It’s delicious served with roasted pork, turkey, or chicken. I always think of my friend Missy when making this, as she inspired the recipe.

Ingredients:
1 cup orange juice
1 cup water
3 cups fresh cranberries
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup dried apricots, diced
1 cup fresh apple, cored and diced
1 cup pecans, chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions:

  1. Mix all ingredients together in a large saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Stir constantly until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes.
  3. Bring to a boil.
  4. Lower heat, cover and simmer 20 minutes, or until cranberries have burst. Stir occasionally.
  5. Remove from heat and chill at least 8 hours before serving chilled.
