Ingredients

  • 12 oz cranberries, fresh or frozen
  • ¾ c pure apple cider
  • ⅓ c pure maple syrup (or honey for a sweeter and lighter flavor)
  • 1 orange, zested
  • Pinch nutmeg

Instructions

  • Rinse the cranberries, if they are fresh and place them in a medium saucepan.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and mix to combine.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes, stirring often, until the mixture has thickened slightly.
  • Remove the sauce from the heat and allow it to cool completely before serving. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.
