You can modify it per the instructions to make it more tart or more of a sweet cranberry sauce. It is the perfect side dish for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner and can be made ahead to save time.
INGREDIENTS
- 12 oz cranberries
- 1 cup orange juice
- 1/2 – 1 cup white sugar
INSTRUCTIONS
- Combine cranberries, orange juice and sugar (amount based on your sweetness preference) in a sauce pan over medium-high heat and cook stirring frequently until the mixture begins to boil.
- Once the mixture boils, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for 3-5 additional minutes, or until it is the “chunkiness” you desire. The longer you cook the more smooth it will be.
- Remove from heat and cool in fridge until serving. Cranberry sauce will thicken as it cools.
- Serve chilled and ENJOY!
