Serves 5-6


2 pkg fresh or frozen cranberries
1-2 cups organic cane sugar
1 cup water

Juice of 2 oranges
3 pieces of orange peel


In medium size pot heat 1 cup sugar over medium heat stirring occasionally so the sugar doesn't burn until it turns into a carmel. Now add orange juice and stand back while pouring in the sugar may spit a little now stir to combine on low heat for 2 min. * the caramel will not be completely mixed in
Sugar caramelizing
Next add in the cranberries and zest followed by 1 cup of water let simmer for 20-25 min on low heat stirring often cook until cranberries are cooked down and sauce looks like a jam.
