Cranberry Sauce for Baking

This cranberry sauce has less water than the one usually served with turkey so it's more spreadable to use in bars and cakes.

But here's the link to the sauce I usually make for dinner if that's what you're looking for:

Ingredients:

3/4 lb whole cranberries

1/4 cup water

1 cup sugar

Optional: zest of 1 orange, 1/4 tsp allspice or 1 tsp cinnamon

Roughly chop the cranberries by pulsing in a food processor. Some berries may still be whole, that's ok. Then add everything to a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer on medium for 10-12 minutes.

Stir regularly until any remaining whole berries burst. Remove from heat and chill.

Makes 2 cups
