Cranberry Apple Sauce

Ingredients

1 navel or Valencia orange, zested and juiced

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup sugar

1 apple, peeled and diced into small pieces

1 cinnamon stick

1/4 teaspoon fresh ginger

12 oz bag of fresh cranberries

Directions

In a small saucepan combine orange juice, most of the orange zest (save some for garnish if desired), apple chunks, water, sugar, cinnamon stick, and ginger. Cook over medium high heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved and the mixture just begins to boil.

Add cranberries and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until cranberries burst, and sauce thickens.

Allow to cool and then refrigerate before serving. 4. Garnish with orange zest if desired.
