Thanksgiving Cranberry Sauce

Ingredients

  • 1 12 oz bag cranberries
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 orange zested
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp cloves
  • 4 T maple syrup

Instructions

  1. In a medium sauce pot, cook the cranberries in the water until you hear the cranberries start to pop open, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add in the zest and juice of one orange, cinnamon and cloves.
  3. Add in maple syrup one tablespoon at a time until you get it to your desired sweetness.
  4. Simmer for 5 minutes. The sauce will thicken as the cranberries continue to pop open.
  5. Store in the fridge overnight

Recipe Notes

I suggest making the cranberry sauce the night before so you don’t even have to think about it on the big day. Just don’t forget to pull it out of the fridge before dinner the next day.
