DIY Cranberry Sauce Recipe

With Thanksgiving right around the corner I wanted to share my absolute favorite cranberry sauce recipe with you. This is fresh and delicious and will make even the cranberry naysayer agree that homemade cranberry sauce can be down right delicious. This recipe is filled with antioxidants and helps a lot if the turkey is a bit on the dry side. Not that any turkey that you make would be dry…

Here’s what you need:

1 16oz bag fresh cranberries

1 16 oz. bag frozen mixed berries (can be raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, or blueberries)

¼- cup real maple syrup OR coconut palm sugar

1/3-cup water

1 large pot with lid

Turn stovetop to medium heat

In large pot add water and maple syrup (or coconut palm sugar) and rinsed fresh cranberries.

Cover with lid and cook for about 10 minutes or until you can hear the cranberries start to pop open. When at least ½ of the cranberries have popped remove the lid and pour out into a serving bowl. Add the bag of frozen mixed berries and stir. You’re done! The heat from the cranberries will melt the frozen berries and leave you with a luke warm mixture that should sit on the counter for at least 20 minutes to blend all the flavors together.
