Microwave Maple Orange Spice Cranberry Sauce

  • Prep Time: 5 minutes
  • Cook Time: 5 minutes
  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: About 1 cup of cranberry sauce 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • Zest & juice of 1 orange
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
  • 1/3 cup real maple syrup
  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/8 teaspoon cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  1. Use a fine shredder to get the zest off the orange, then cut the orange in half and squeeze all the juice you can out of it into a medium mixing bowl.
  2. Add the cranberries, maple syrup, cinnamon, allspice, cloves and vanilla to the bowl and stir. Microwave on high for 3 minutes, remove and stir, then microwave another 2 minutes and stir. If needed, microwave for 1 – 2 minutes longer, stopping when the cranberries have all popped and the mixture starts to look like cranberry sauce.
  3. Stir in the orange zest. Refrigerate in a covered container until serving time. If desired, add a little more orange zest for garnish at serving time.
