Orange Maple Cranberry Sauce

Recipe by Veronika | thehealthfulideas

Delicious, easy, and healthy cranberry sauce that comes together in about 20 minutes!


  • Total Time25 minutes
  • Yield2 cups 1x
  • DietVegan

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 cups cranberries
  • the zest of 1/2-1 orange
  • the juice of 1 orange
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup (add more or less to taste)

Instructions

  1. Add the cranberries to a pot with a splash of water, the orange zest, orange juice, and maple syrup, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for about 10 minutes or until all the cranberries pop.
  2. Stir occasionally to make sure it’s not sticking to the bottom. Cook till you reach your desired consistency. I like to make my cranberry sauce really saucy so I cook it for about 20 mins total.
  3. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for about 5 days.

Notes

If you don't have maple syrup you can use any other sweetener you like. Honey, yacon syrup, coconut sugar, date sugar, brown sugar, etc.
