1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons firm butter or margarine

1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2/3 cup chopped walnuts

Heat oven to 425°. Pour water over cranberries in 1-quart microwavable dish; cover with plastic wrap, folding back one side to vent. Microwave on High 1 minute. Uncover cranberries; cool.
