SPICED CRANBERRY SAUCE

••••••••

This is my very favorite way to make Cranberry Sauce. It has so much more flavor than simple cranberry sauce with just sugar and water—and with the added cinnamon and ginger—it also has added nutrition and tummy benefits—aiding digestion. This sauce will keep for at least 2 weeks in the refrigerator and will freeze for at least a year.

Yield: 6 to 8 servings

4 cups fresh cranberries
2 sticks cinnamon
2 cups sugar
2 cups water
2 Tablespoons chopped candied ginger
½ cup fresh squeezed orange juice
1 teaspoon orange zest
5 whole cloves
5 whole allspice
1 Tablespoon Cinnamon stick, preferably Canela or Chinese Cinnamon*
¼ teaspoon powdered Chipotle*

1. Place all ingredients except the last 3 spices in a 3 quart saucepan. Place the spices in a tea ball or tie into a clean cloth and place in the cranberry sauce. Simmer about 5 to 7 minutes or until the cranberries have popped. Taste and adjust the flavor if desired.
