Easiest Ever Homemade Cranberry Sauce

A holiday recipe that's too simple NOT to make!

Servings 6 people

Ingredients

  • 1 C water
  • 1 C sugar
  • 1 12-oz bag whole, fresh cranberries

Instructions

  1. Pour the water into a medium-size saucepan and heat the burner to medium-high heat. Gently stir the sugar into the water with a whisk while the water heats up.  

  2. While the water mixture is heating, rinse the fresh cranberries in a colander and cold water. 

  3. Once the water mixture comes to a boil, carefully pour in the cranberries! Stir, and reduce the temperature a little so that the water continues to simmer.

  4. Let the cranberries simmer for about ten minutes, stirring occasionally with a whisk.  

  5. Once the cranberry sauce has thickened, remove from heat and pour into a glass serving bowl. Chill before serving!
