Orange Ginger Cranberry Sauce
Prep & Cook Time: 25 minutes • Yields: 10-12 servings
Ingredients:
1 cup honey
¾ cup granulated sugar
½ cup water
½ cup orange juice, freshly squeezed
Zest from freshly squeezed orange
½ tbsp, ginger, finely grated
1 cinnamon stick
1 bag 12 oz. cranberries
Equipment:
Measuring cups and spoons
Stove
Medium saucepan
Fork or potato masher
Medium plastic container
Service bowl
Method:
1. Combine honey, granulated sugar, water, and orange juice in a medium-sized saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly until honey and sugar dissolves into mixture.
2. Add orange zest, ginger, cinnamon stick, and cranberries to pan and bring to a boil.
3. Reduce heat to let mixture cook at a low boil for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Before removing from heat, taste to determine if you want to add more honey or sugar for a sweeter sauce.
5. Remove from heat and discard cinnamon stick.
6. If you want a less chunky cranberry sauce, use a fork or potato masher to pop cranberries before sauce cools and thickens.
7. Let rest until sauce reaches room temperature and refrigerate until ready to serve.
