  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • zest of 1 orange
  • 1 jalapeno diced small
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 cup sugar

Instructions

  • In a medium-sized soup pot over medium heat, add the cranberries, ginger, cinnamon, orange zest, orange juice, jalapeno, dried cranberries, and sugar. Stir to combine.
  • Bring to a boil and lower heat to low stirring constantly. Using the back end of a spoon, crush the cranberries. You will hear them begin to "pop".
  • Cook for approximately 10 minutes or until most of the cranberries have popped and sauce begins to thicken.
  • Remove from heat and let cool before serving.

Notes

Cranberry sauce can be made in advance and either frozen or made a few days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
