Orange Cranberry Sauce
Cranberry sauce is a holiday favorite, and this one with a citrus twist and deeper sweetness thanks to coconut sugar make it a great holiday dish!
Ingredients
Cranberry Sauce Ingredients:
- 12 oz. Cranberries fresh & rinsed
- Juice of Half Orange + Zest of Orange
- Plus enough Water to make 1 cup
- 1 cup Coconut Sugar
- 1 t. Cinnamon
- 1/2 t. Allspice
Instructions
- Begin by juicing enough of an orange to get about 1/4 cup of water and then fill up the rest of the measuring cup with water until you have 1 cup of liquid total.
- Add the liquid and 1 cup of coconut sugar to a pan and bring it to a boil. Then add the cranberries, cinnamon and allspice and cook for 10 minutes or until the sauce is thick.
- Remove from the heat and stir in about 1 teaspoon of orange zest and then transfer the sauce to a glass dish. Then cover with saran wrap so the wrap touches the top of the sauce so it doesn’t form a skin.
- Chill completely and the enjoy, so feel free to make this a day in advance! Top with extra orange zest and then dig in!
Notes
Quick Tip: You can use regular sugar instead of coconut sugar, but I used the latter to avoid refined sugar and it's lower on the glycemic index.
