Cranberry Applesauce
Instead of the usual jellied cranberry sauce, I serve this refreshing alternative. It's not too sweet and not too sour...plus it's a snap to make.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons water
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
- 5 medium Golden Delicious apples (about 2-1/2 pounds), peeled and chopped
- 1-1/4 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
- 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh gingerroot
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Very good
This was very good. I doubled the cranberries just because I had them. I will be making this again next year. Thank you for the recipe!
My kids do not like cranberries and so they were skeptical about this recipe. I reduced the sugar somewhat and left out the ginger and we all loved it! Great way to use up leftover cranberries from the holidays.
