Spiced Apple Cranberry Sauce image

So much better than a can-shaped blob, this cranberry sauce recipe unites cranberries with a natural counterpart, apples. Add ground cinnamon and cloves, and not only will your mashed potatoes and stuffing have a delicious companion, but your house'll smell divine, too.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup apple cider (can substitute water)
1 medium apple (peeled, cored, and diced) (I recommend a tart variety like Granny Smith or McIntosh)
3 cups 12 ounces fresh cranberries, washed
1/3 - 2/3 cup sugar (plus possibly a little more, to taste)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
Zest of one small lemon (about 1 teaspoon)

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients to a medium saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the temp to medium-low and simmer until the berries have burst and the mixture has thickened, about 10-15 minutes.
  • Let cool and serve.
  • May be refrigerated for two days or frozen for up to two months.
