How to Make Holiday Cranberry Chutney

  1. Wash and pick over 12 ounces (340g) fresh cranberries.
  2. Combine cranberries and 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar in a large saucepan.
  3. Drain one 15-ounce (425g) can of sliced peaches, reserving the syrup. Add the peach syrup, 1/2 cup (120ml) orange juice, 1/4 cup (30ml) apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup (40g) chopped pecans, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice to the saucepan with the cranberries and sugar.
  4. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Cook, uncovered, for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add the drained peach slices and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring gently to prevent sticking.
  6. Remove from heat and let cool completely at room temperature.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 days (or up to 5-6 days) to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled.
  8. Enjoy your delicious homemade Holiday Cranberry Chutney!
