Wild cranberries, apple juice, pears, and raisins make a great sauce. It will keep for 2 weeks in the refrigerator, so save some time by making it in advance. Fast and easy to make. If you do not have access to wild cranberries, you may substitute commercial fresh or frozen cranberries.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups wild cranberries
  • 3/4 cup apple juice
  • 2 ripe pears, cored and sliced
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 1 teaspoon liquid stevia (or other sweetener to taste)

Preparation:

Combine cranberries, apple juice, pears, raisins, and stevia in a medium-size, heavy saucepan and bring the pot to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Chill the sauce completely before serving. Wild Cranberry Sauce will keep, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.

Yield: 4 cups
