Description
A delicious spiced cranberry sauce perfect for the holidays.
Ingredients
Scale
- 24 oz cranberries (fresh)
- 1/2 cup apple cider (spiced cider is great)
- 1 large cinnamon stick
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 pinch orange zest (optional)
Instructions
- Add your spiced apple cider and 20 oz. of your fresh cranberries into your pot.
- Drizzle your maple syrup on top and put your cinnamon stick in the middle.
- Close your lid and steam valve and set to high pressure for 1 minute.
- Allow to naturally release for 3 minutes.
- Release rest of steam and lift lid making sure water/steam on inside of lid doesn’t dump into mixture.
- Turn pot off and then set to sauté, normal.
- Sprinkle in your last 4 oz. of fresh cranberries and cup of sugar, stir.
- Allow to bubble for about 1-2 minutes, stirring intermittently, until a few of the fresh cranberries begin to pop (you will literally hear them start popping open).
- When you hear 3-4 pop open turn your Instant Pot off and allow it to continue to bubble and thicken your cranberry sauce as it cools down and sits.
- Serve immediately or let it sit and thicken more before serving.
Notes
- This recipe yields about 2 cups of cranberry sauce.
