whole berry orange cranberry sauce
Got a great deal on fresh Cranberries at Sam's Club and decided to make a variety of recipes using them. This is a regular made from scratch Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce, but I will also post a lower sugar version. Homemade Cranberry Sauce is one of the easiest recipes you can make. This is my version. I decided to enhance the flavor a bit with added Orange Zest and orange Extract. Taste great, and takes less than 15 minutes to make. Try it and see what you think.
