How to Make Cranberry Sauce Spread
- Combine 12 ounces (340g) fresh cranberries, 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar (or 1 cup Splenda for a lower calorie option - note: 1 cup Splenda is approximately 96 calories), 1/2 cup (120ml) water, and 1/4 cup (30ml) orange juice in a 3-quart saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20-35 minutes, or until the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Use an immersion blender (or carefully transfer to a regular blender) to reach your desired consistency – from chunky to completely smooth.
- Once completely cool, transfer the cranberry sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. This will also help it thicken further.
