Step By Step Instructions
Add the water, orange juice, and cinnamon stick to a medium saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Orange Juice: Fresh squeezed orange juice is best in this recipe, but store-bought will work as well. Just make sure to get 100% orange juice, not a blend. Sugar: This recipe calls for white and brown sugar. You can use all white, brown, or dark brown sugar. Cinnamon Stick: If you don’t have a cinnamon stick, you can substitute 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon or omit it altogether. Cranberries: You can use fresh or frozen cranberries. Make sure they are thawed and drained before adding them to the pan. Add the sugars, and cook, while stirring to dissolve the sugar. Stir in the cranberries and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer until the cranberries have cooked for about 10 minutes. Discard the cinnamon stick and allow it to cool slightly before adding it to a clean jar. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. It will gelatinate and thicken as it cools. Freezing Instructions: Cranberry sauce can also be frozen for up to six months when stored in a freezer bag or freezer-safe container. Thaw it overnight in the fridge before serving.
