- 3 cups cranberries rinsed
- 1 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup sugar granulated
- 1 cinnamon stick
- the zest of one orange
Add the rinsed cranberries, orange juice, sugar, cinnamon stick, and orange zest together in a medium sauce pot over medium low to medium heat,
Stir everything together to dissolve the sugar.
Cook the mixture until the cranberries pop, simmer, and the liquid starts to thicken and reduce, stirring frequently.
When the cranberry sauce thickens to the point that it pulls away from the bottom of the pot when you run your spoon through it on the bottom, turn off the heat.
Transfer it to a serving dish, carefully discarding the cinnamon stick, and let it cool and thicken for ten minutes.
Serve and enjoy!
