Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup Orange Juice fresh
- 1/2 cup white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay
- 1 stick cinnamon or 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1 (12 oz.) package fresh cranberries (about 3 cups)
- 2 Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced
- 1 1/2 tsp. fresh ginger, minced
- 1/8 tsp. red pepper chili flakes, optional
- 1 Tbsp. orange zest
Instructions
- In a medium sized saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, orange juice, white wine and cinnamon. Simmer for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves.
- Add in the cranberries, diced apple, ginger and chili flakes (if using).
- Simmer the mixture uncovered for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. The cranberries will begin to pop/burst and break down. You'll notice the sauce thicken and get syrupy.
- Remove from heat, stir in orange zest. Transfer to a shallow dish or bowl and allow to cool before serving. Remove cinnamon stick prior to serving. Can be made 2 days in advance.

Notes
Store in the fridge in an air-tight container for 10-14 days.
If you don't like a chunky cranberry sauce, you can use a potato masher to smooth it out or even blitz in your blender until smooth.
Sauce thickens as it cools.
