Ingredients
6cupsfresh cranberries(approx. 2 bags)
2TBSPlime juice
1.5tsplime zest
¾cuphoney
3TBSPbrown sugar
Instructions
Heat a small sauce pot to medium-high heat and add your berries, juice, zest and honey. Cover and stir occasionally for up to five minutes.
My sauce was literally done in three.
Stir in brown sugar and mash any berries that were too stubborn to burst with a spoon/fork. Stir a bit more as the sauce thickens and remove from heat.
For an extra smooth sauce, puree in a blender or food processor.I don’t do this with my other sauces [I typically keep it nice and rustic!] but I pureed this one and loved it! An immersion blender also works fantastic for a lusciously smooth cranberry sauce.
If you’re making the larger batch of sauce it may take just a few extra minutes to cook but it’s well worth it!
Oh hi, that’s it. Easiest recipe ever!
