Cinnamon and Ginger-Spiced Cranberry-Orange Sauce {Crazy for Cranberry}

November 8, 2014 by Faith 7 Comments

Cinnamon and Ginger-Spiced Cranberry-Orange Sauce

To end my week-long Crazy for Cranberry event, I’m leaving you with a more traditional cranberry sauce.

It’s warmly spiced and aromatic with orange, but still normal enough to please even the most hardcore traditionalist Thanksgiving food fanatics.

So if you have old-school eaters to please at your holiday table or if you don’t like to venture too far out when it comes to cranberry sauce, Cinnamon and Ginger-Spiced Cranberry Orange Sauce is the recipe for you.

I have a very important (haha!) breakfast tradition for the day after Thanksgiving in my home: a gorgeous bowl of cranberry sauce-topped yogurt! (Like this thing of beauty.) It’s a super simple breakfast, but I love it because it really showcases the flavor of the particular cranberry sauce that I made that year. Add a sprinkling of walnuts, pecans, or chia seeds, and it doesn’t get any better.

In case you missed a day, here are the other cranberry recipes I shared this week…

Prep time:  5 mins
Cook time:  15 mins

Ingredients
  • 12 oz (340 g or about 3 heaping cups) fresh cranberries, rinsed

    I always add ginger to my cranberry sauce…it’s the best! Love the orange infusion as well. I’m sure I could lick that cranberry boat clean.
