Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar or 3/4 cup for a less sweet option
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 12 ounces of fresh North Bay Produce cranberries
- 1 1/2 tbsps finely grated orange zest
- 1 sprig of fresh rosemary remove before serving
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- Optional: A pinch of ground cloves or nutmeg for added warmth
- Garnish: Sprig of fresh mint or rosemary
Instructions
- Combine 1 cup of white sugar, 1/2 cup of orange juice, 12 ounces of fresh cranberries, 1 1/2 tbsps of finely grated zest, 1 sprig of rosemary, 1/4 tsp kosher salt, and 1 tbsp of ground cinnamon in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the cranberries begin to pop, about 10 minutes.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or seasoning as desired.
- Remove the cranberry sauce from the heat and discard the rosemary sprig. Transfer the sauce to a container and allow it to cool; it will thicken as it sets.
- Store in the fridge until ready to serve.
- Garnish with a sprig of mint or rosemary just before serving for a fresh, decorative touch.
