Ingredients
- 12 oz cranberries (fresh or frozen)
- 2 cups date paste or 1/2 cup maple syrup
- juice of 1 orange
- 1 tsp orange zest optional
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a pot and turn the stove on high. Once boiling, turn the heat down to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
- When cranberries start popping, you can mash some of them with your spoon to thicken the sauce.
- If the sauce is too tart/not sweet enough for your taste, add more maple syrup or date paste to sweeten as necessary. As noted in the post, the sweeter/riper your orange/orange juice is, the more sweetness that will add or subtract, as well.
