Ingredients

Scale

2 cups (1–8 ounce bag) fresh cranberries, washed

2/3 cups orange juice (about 2 medium oranges)*

1 tsp. orange zest

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed**

1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon

Instructions

In a medium sauce pot, combine all ingredients and bring to a boil over medium heat.  Stir frequently. (Be careful to avoid over bubbling and sauce popping out of the pan.) Reduce heat to medium-low and let sauce simmer until it’s reduced by about half.  Let cool and serve as a side or garnish.

Notes

For a sweeter sauce:

*Substitute equal amounts of apple juice for orange juice.

**Increase the brown sugar from 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup.  You can also use white granulated sugar.
