Easy Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce with Orange and Honey
This whole berry cranberry sauce comes together in 12 minutes with 4 ingredients, fresh cranberries, orange juice, orange zest, and honey. No refined sugar, no can opener, and it tastes far better than the canned stuff.
EQUIPMENT NEEDED
- Sauce pan
Ingredients
- 12 oz bag of fresh cranberries
- 1 cup orange juice
- ½ cup honey
- zest from one orange
Instructions
- Add the orange juice and honey to a saucepan and heat over medium-low heat, stirring until the honey dissolves (about 2 minutes).
- Add the cranberries and orange zest. Increase heat to medium and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until most of the cranberries have burst and the sauce coats the back of a spoon.
- Remove from heat and let cool for 20–30 minutes before serving, it will thicken more as it cools.
Notes
- Sauce thickens significantly as it cools, don't judge texture straight off the stove.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 10–14 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Doubles or triples easily in the same pot; add a few extra minutes of simmer time.
