Spiced Cranberry Sauce
This spiced holiday cranberry sauce is a real hit at my families dinner table. I am often asked well in advance if I plan to make "that cranberry" sauce again? It's simple, fresh and infused with holidays spiced
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup 100% pure pomegranate or cranberry juice (not from concentrate)
- 1 large navel orange (juice and zest)
- 2 whole cloves
- 1 whole cinnamon stick
- 1 tsp allspice
- 2-3 cups fresh cranberries
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar or 4 soaked, pitted dates pureed
Instructions
- Remove the orange zest and reserve for later
- Bring pomegranate, orange juice and spices to a boil. Reduce heat to low and spoon out cloves and cinnamon stick
- Add 2-3 cups of fresh cranberries, coconut sugar and the orange zest.
- Allow the cranberries to simmer for 10-15 minutes; you will hear them pop.
- Remove the sauce from the heat and allow to cool and thicken for about 20-30minutes before serving.
Notes
This may be made ahead and stored in the fridge for about a week.
