Cranberry Sauce (Vegan)

Cranberry sauce can be easy and absolutely delicious when sweetened with dates or honey! Trust me on this.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups cranberries
  • 2 sliced granny smith apples
  • ¼ – ¾ cup dates, date paste or honey (start with ¼ cup and once you have all the spices and sea salt mixed in, taste to see if it’s sweet enough for you, add more if you want it a bit sweeter)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp cardamom
  • ½ tsp ginger (optional)
  • ¼ tsp cloves
  • ¼ tsp sea salt

Directions

  • In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil.
  • Add all of the ingredients (except honey if you are using honey as your sweetener) and reduce to a simmer.
  • Simmer until the cranberries and apples are soft (about 5 – 7 minutes).
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool for 3 – 5 minutes. Then, if you are using honey as your sweetener, add it in.
  • Mix up with a whisk to blend everything together and it’s ready to serve!
