Cranberry Sauce

November 22, 2011 · by

I really think that some people are intimidated by the thought of making cranberry sauce from scratch, and instead – they open up a can of it.  With only 4 ingredients, & 20 minutes of time – there is absolutely nothing to be afraid of.


Even if you are a fan of the can, you should try this out. Who knows – it might just win you over.

Ingredients:

  • 12 ounces cranberries
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • chopped pecans to taste (optional)


Instructions:

Combine the sugars & orange juice in a saucepan & cook on medium until the sugar is dissolved.

Add in the cranberries, and cook 10-15 minutes on medium heat, stirring every so often – until the cranberries start popping. Cranberry sauce will thicken as it cools.

Refrigerate until time to serve.  

This can be made 48 hours in advance.
