SUGAR FREE CRANBERRY SAUCE

I use this for my diabetic friends who come on Thanksgiving and Christmas. I got this recipe from an Equal recipe card somewhere.

Provided by Darlene Summers

Categories     Low Protein

Time 13m

Yield 2 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2/3 cup water
2 cups fresh cranberries or 2 cups frozen cranberries
1 cup Equal sugar substitute (or 24 packets Equal sugar substitute or 7 1/4 teaspoons Equal sugar substitute)

Steps:

  • Combine water and cranberries in a medium saucepan. Bring just to boiling; reduce heat.
  • Boil gently, uncovered, over medium heat 8 minutes, stirring occasionally (skins will pop).
  • Remove from heat mash slightly.
  • Stir in Equal; cover and chill.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor and more nutrients than frozen cranberries. If you're using frozen cranberries, thaw them completely before using.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: Cranberry sauce is best when it's cooked just until the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened. Overcooking the sauce will make it bitter.
  • Add some citrus: A squeeze of lemon or orange juice can brighten up the flavor of cranberry sauce. You can also add a bit of grated orange or lemon zest.
  • Use a variety of spices: Cranberry sauce is a great way to use up leftover spices. Try adding a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, or cloves.
  • Make it ahead of time: Cranberry sauce can be made up to a week ahead of time. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

Cranberry sauce is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed all year round. It's perfect for Thanksgiving dinner, but it's also great on sandwiches, salads, and even desserts. With so many different ways to make it, there's sure to be a cranberry sauce recipe that everyone will love.
