Recipe Card – Cranberry Sauce


I know people who swear by homemade cranberry sauce. I personally had never even had any until I was a voting adult – I thought it only came in the can! Now I like both kinds, but I don’t compare them – they’re so different. 
 
Making cranberry sauce isn’t all that hard – so try it out this year!
Ingredients
  • 1 C.  water
  • 1 C.  white sugar
  • 1 (12 ounce) pkg. fresh cranberries
  • 1 orange, peeled + pureed
  • 1 apple, peeled, cored + diced
  • 1 pear, peeled, cored + diced
  • 1 C. dried mixed fruit, chopped
  • 1 C. pecans , chopped
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp. nutmeg
Directions
In a medium saucepan, boil water and sugar until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat and simmer. Stir in all other ingredients. Cover + simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. It’s done when the cranberries burst. Remove from heat + cool to room temperature.
Give thanks!
