Orange Cranberry Sauce
Orange cranberry sauce using fresh cranberries, orange juice, honey, and cinnamon to create a sweet and tart twist on a classic cranberry sauce. Perfect for the holidays!
Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh cranberries ((washed and dried))
- 1 cup orange juice ((or you can use ½ cup orange juice and ½ cup water if you want less orange flavor))
- ¾ cup sugar
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- zest from 1 orange
Instructions
- Place all of the ingredients (except for the orange zest) in a 3 quart sauce pan or deep pot. Give everything a mix and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and simmer for 10 minutes. Be sure to stir every couple of minutes. The cranberries will pop and the orange juice will bubble up until eventually the liquid will reduce. Once the liquid reduces and the sauce thickens, you can remove from the heat and transfer to a heat proof bowl. Remove the cinnamon sticks and stir in the orange zest. I like to reserve a little bit of orange zest for the top of the sauce when I serve it as well. Let if cool completely in the refrigerator before serving (about 2 hours).
