Homemade Cranberry Sauce Recipe

Method

1. 1

   In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the cranberries, granulated sugar, cinnamon, orange juice and water.

2. 2

   Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir gently to combine all the ingredients.

3. 3

   Allow the mixture to come to a simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

4. 4

   Reduce the heat to low and let the cranberries cook for about 10 minutes, or until they burst, and the sauce thickens slightly.

   Remove the cranberry sauce from the heat and let the cranberry sauce cool completely.

6. 6

   Transfer the sauce to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavours to meld together.
