This recipe is simple, quick and a family favorite. It's delicious as a garnish for turkey or other meat entrees. I'll often make a double batch so we have extra to spread on toast or even use as a topping on desserts. —Rebecca Israel, Mansfield, Pennsylvania

So easy and absolutely delicious. I used the leftovers in another Taste of Home recipe, Turkey Cranberry Bagels.

Good recipe. I love cranberries. Had some applesauce that needed to be used, so I added a tablespoon to the cranberry sauce. It added another taste dimension.

Love and brag about this recipe. Look forward to making this again for the holidays. I buy local honey and syrup so it is a total out of this world experience.

Soooo good. the honey and maple syrup add the desired sweetness with a richer flavor than sugar. We loved this with our Thanksgiving dinner.

I liked this recipe, it was simple but very tasty.. i actually made it again and left out the orange zest, it was really good that way too.

This is quite tasty! A nice alternative if you prefer more sweet rather than tart cranberry sauce.~ Theresa

This can get pretty 'sweet' so you may want to increase the cranberries to 3 cups.
