I really think that some people are intimidated by the thought of making cranberry sauce from scratch, and instead - they open up a can of it. With only 4 ingredients, & 20 minutes of time - there is absolutely nothing to be afraid of.
Even if you are a fan of the can, you should try this out. Who knows - it might just win you over.
You will need-
Ingredients:
- 12 ounces cranberries
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup orange juice
- chopped pecans to taste (optional)
Instructions:
Combine the sugars & orange juice in a saucepan & cook on medium until the sugar is dissolved.
Add in the cranberries, and cook 10-15 minutes on medium heat, stirring every so often - until the cranberries start popping. Cranberry sauce will thicken as it cools.
Refrigerate until time to serve.
This can be made 48 hours in advance.
