Cranberry Sauce is such the perfect complement to homemade dressing or stuffing. Add ham or turkey and you have the best holiday plate ever. I hope you will give this one a try. It has the right amount of tartness and sweetness. Delicious. Recipe below.
Enjoy!

I love fresh whole cranberry sauce. Few know it's a cold and flu season anti-oxidant super food and it's the perfect refrigerator ready snack or appetizer over cream cheese on crackers. I keep bags in the freezer and make this all winter long. Cinnamon, nutmeg and all spice to your taste offsets any overly tart or bitter flavor.
I would love to make this, my husband loves the canned jelly kind. I would eat this for sure
Hi.❤❤
Getting ready to jump into this. Be back after I take a look see. 😊
OK, just finished. I love the color of cranberries. Now, what’s the orange peel do to the flavor? And so are little pieces of orange rind called "zest" and is the act of peeling it and putting it into something called "zesting"? Somebody talk to me like I'm twelve. 😂
I love cranberry sauce, and it's getting exciting the closer we get to the holidays. Thanks for sharing your recipes Karen. 🙂♥️
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.love cranberries 😊
Looks so yummy
Sounds wonderful. My mother's recipe calls for unsweetened raspberries instead of using orange. It makes wonderful gelatin, too.
I will have to try the brown sugar this year. I also put in a cinnamon stick in mine as well.
Thanks, Karen. I love the berries in my sauce. I will definitely try this with the brown sugar. I haven't had it that way… yet.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. I’ve made homemade cranberry sauce and it is the best.
I’ve been making my own cranberry sauce since I was young and now over 60. This time of year I fill my freezer up with bags of cranberries so I can make it all year round. Great with chicken and something different on a burger or sandwich. Thx. ❣️
Looks yummy.
I've never made homemade before but I just have to try this! Looks delicious! Thank you!
My mom always made this its delicious 😋 thank you happy holidays 😋
I love cranberry anything but I’ve never added brown sugar, I will now. I need to buy a few more bags of cranberries to make more Christmas Jam. It’s delicious. Thank you Karen. Hugs , love and prayers. 🤗❤️🙏🏻

Karen, can you tell me how to print your recipes? It is probably obvious, but I don’t see it! Thanks so much!
I absolutely love you!!!❤
I decided to try this cranberry sauce recipe instead of the basic recipe on the bag I do every year. This was so delicious and I will always do it this way from now on. Thank you so much for sharing this. I hope you had a wonderful holiday. 💕
I've loved making the homemade sauce these last few years and I love the tip about putting some of the rind in it!
