Cranberry Sauce

Recipe #78017 | 20 min | 10 min prep | add private note

I had this marvelous cranberry sauce about 5 years ago at a friends house. Since I have Diabetes, I substituted Splenda for an equal amount of sugar...you could switch back if you like. I love this recipe and make it every year at Thanksgiving. It's best if you make it several days ahead to allow the flavors to blend. It's a step above the "norm".

3 cups (change servings and units)

    I've ONLY ever had the canned cranberry sauce, and thought this year for Thanksgiving I'd try making the "real thing." I'm so glad I did — and with this recipe! I brought my dish to a Thanksgiving potluck and I only received rave reviews. Thank you and I will definitely be making this for future holiday meals!

    I thought this was one of my all time favorites for fresh cranberries. I used half Splenda and half regular white sugar. I LOVED the addition of the ginger. The reason for the four stars was because of mixed reviews from my Thanksgiving guests. Well, not everybody likes ginger as much as I do. I did have some of that (crappy) canned stuff there for these folks. I will make this again but probably cut the ginger in half.

    This receipe kicks butt. Seriously Joanne, I've made it the last two years for Thanksgiving and have gotten nothing but raves! For a switch I also add 1 cup of Southern Comfort.
