If you've never made your own cranberry sauce, start with this one. Unlike most cranberry sauces which are boiled, this one is baked. Easy cranberry sauce is flavored with Grand Marnier and orange juice. If you do not have Grand Marnier or don't want to use liquor, simply substitute an equal amount of orange juice concentrate. May be made up to a week in advance.
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour
Ingredients:
- 1 package (12 ounces) fresh cranberries
- 1-1/4 cups sugar
- 2 Tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
- 2 Tablespoons Grand Marnier®
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 325 F.
Spread cranberries in an even layer in an 8 x 8 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Sprinkle with sugar and orange juice concentrate. Stir to combine, then even out in the dish. Cover with a lid or foil so it is airtight.
Bake about 1 hour, until cranberries are very soft and juicy. Remove from oven. Uncover and stir in Grand Marnier®. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
May be made up to 1 week in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
Yield: about 2 cups
