Easy Peasy Cranberry Sauce

Easy Peasy Cranberry Sauce

I must admit to having gone slightly cranberry mad this year! First there was my Cranberry, Feta and Quinoa Stuffed Butternut Squash and then there was the Chocolate Tart with Cranberries, Orange and Pistachios and the Cranberry, Cinnamon and Pecan Porridge Squares…

Not forgetting my Turkey, Cranberry and Feta Sausage Rolls and my Sprout Salad with Cranberries, Pecan nuts and Clementines…

And then yesterday I shared my recipe for Cinnamon Porridge with Cranberry and Plum Compote!! (And I’m not finished yet.)

And well, all I can say is if you are looking for cranberry related inspiration, Easy Peasy Foodie is the place to come this year. 🙂

But it did occur to me that I haven’t properly shared my recipe for cranberry sauce…or rather I have shared it, but tucked away in my recipe for Christmas Turkey Burgers, where I called it cranberry relish!

Easy Peasy Cranberry Sauce

I have been blogging now for just over 18 months and whilst there are many areas that still confuse and befuddle me, even I know that people typing ‘Easy Cranberry Sauce Recipe’ into Google (other search engines are available) are unlikely to find it hidden away in a recipe for Christmas Turkey Burgers!

Easy Peasy Cranberry Sauce

This cranberry sauce recipe is so lovely, and so easy peasy, I hate the idea of people not being able to find it, so I’m re-releasing, so to speak, it under a more sensible name!!

Easy Peasy Cranberry Sauce

Enjoy! 🙂

    I love cranberries! I wish we could get fresh ones all year round. I make a lovely cranberry sauce with champagne but yours is perfect for his year as I am trying to keep the calories down. Again thank you for sharing with #CookBlogShare and merry Christmas x

      Me too! Cranberry sauce with Champagne sounds amazing – very decadent!! I like it with port too, but wanted to keep it super simple for this recipe. And, as you point out without booze is lower calorie. This version is also lower in sugar than many other recipes on the internet and much lower in sugar than most shop bought versions, which taste like jam to me! Good luck sticking to Slimming World over Christmas. Hope all the successes you’ve had over the last few weeks gives you the boost to stay on track!! Eb x

    You’re so right to have released your Cranberry Sauce as it’s own post, it’s such an important part of Christmas dinner that it’d be chulish to have it hidden away amongst another recipe. Looks gorgeous 🙂

      Haha, well exactly. It was a bit difficult to find and it is such a fabulously easy peasy recipe, I’d hate for people not to be able to find it! I made mine on Christmas Day whilst I was enjoying a glass of Champagne…some of the Champagne may have ended up in the cranberry sauce…! Eb x
