1 1/2cupsgranulated sugar, if you like your cranberry sauce sweet, go up to 1.75 cups
1/3cupwater
1stickcinnamon
1/8tspground nutmeg
1/8tspground allspice
1/2smallorange, zest and juice
The Process
In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, sugar and water. Stir to blend and bring to a boil over medium heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer (about medium low), add the cinnamon stick, nutmeg, and allspice, stir to blend, and cook for about 5-7 minutes or until you see some of the cranberries bursting. Some cranberries will remain whole and some will burst.
Remove from the heat and add the orange juice and zest, stir to combine and let cool before serving. I like to chill my down significantly before serving. This can be made a day before and stored in the fridge. Enjoy!
