Cranberry Sauce Recipe
This is the classic cranberry sauce you always wanted! Super simple and easy to make and you can control how sweet you like it!
Ingredients
- 10 ounces fresh cranberries
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup granulated sugar
Instructions
- Combine: In a medium saucepan, put 10 ounces fresh cranberries, 1 cup water, and ½ cup granulated sugar. Stir to combine.
- Cook Sauce: Bring to boil and then reduce to simmer. Let simmer 25-35 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Serve: Remove and let cool before serving.
Notes
- *Sugar: you can actually add up to 1 cup of sugar, but it depends upon how sweet you want your cranberry sauce. I liked it with 1/2 cup sugar (it was a little sweet, but still tart), but you can always add more even after it is fully cooked - so taste and adjust according to your personal preferences.
- Make Ahead: this is a great recipe to make ahead of Thanksgiving or any holiday dinner.
- Storage: store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Variations: we have a couple variations of this on the site: Bourbon Cranberry Sauce, Apple Cranberry Sauce or Cranberry Orange Sauce!
