Description

Orange Maple Cranberry Sauce with fresh apple is a bright and healthy addition to your holiday feast!  Easy, fast, and can be made ahead.   Maple-sweetened, and free of refined sugar, vegan and gluten-free!


Ingredients

Units
  • 4 cups cranberries, washed
  • 3/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 orange, zested, then peeled and cut very small avoiding big parts of the membrane
  • 1 small apple, diced
  • pinch of salt


Instructions

  1. In a pot, cook cranberries, maple syrup and a pinch of salt over medium heat, until lightly simmering and cranberries begin to pop, about 8 minutes.  It is okay if cranberries are in different stages of breaking down.  Some will be popped, some will still be whole.
  2. Remove cranberries from heat.  Add diced apples, orange zest and chopped orange.  Mix to combine.  It will thicken as it cools.
  3. Refrigerate until serving.

Notes

This will keep 4 days in the fridge.  Best served within 2 days of making.
