Apple Cranberry Sauce
The delicious combination of cranberries and apples creates this incredibly yummy spin on regular applesauce.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces cranberries (fresh or frozen, rinsed)
- 3.5 pounds apples (about 10 apples, roughly peeled and chopped; I used Gala apples in this recipe.)
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in the crock pot and stir well to combine.
- Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 6-8 hours.
- At the end of cooking, use an immersion blender or potato masher to smooth out the apples and cranberries into desired texture, stir thoroughly, and enjoy!
Freezer Instructions
To Freeze: Cook sauce according to recipe instructions. Let cool completely. Once cool, put in freezer-safe bags or containers. Store in freezer for up to 3 months.
To Prepare: Thaw sauce overnight in refrigerator. You can also run the bag under cool water in the sink.
Notes/Tips
- Cranberries - Fresh or frozen work!
- Apples - I used Gala but like our Crockpot Baked apple recipe, we recommend using McIntosh, Golden Delicious, or Jonathans too.
- I recommend getting this apple peeler to save time.
