This is a simple apple-cranberry sauce. If you eat sugar, you will probably find this recipe way too tart, so adjust to taste. I make applesauce all the time. The great thing about making it from scratch is you can adjust the amount of sugar.
Ingredients
- ½ (12 ounce) bag fresh cranberries
- 1/3 cup water, or more to taste
- 3 medium apples, sliced
- 1 ½ tablespoons brown sugar, or more to taste
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
Directions
Step 1
Combine cranberries and 1/3 cup water in a saucepan over medium-low heat; cook for a few minutes. Add apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Increase heat and bring to a boil.
Step 2
Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until apples are soft, about 10 minutes. Mash with a potato masher (or blend with an immersion blender) to desired smoothness.
Cook’s Note:
If the apples are fresh I leave the peel on. If they are starting to get old, then peel.
