Steps:
- 1. After zesting the entire orange, cut orange into pieces and remove the pits. Fine-chop or pulverize the orange in your food processor. Wash jelly jars and snap lids in hot soapy water (I put them all in the dishwasher). Rinse with boiling water, prior to filling.
- 2. Combine cranberries, orange zest, chopped orange, orange juice Place these ingredients in a 2 qt. saucepan. Cover saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
- 3. When berries begin to pop, turn heat down to low and continue cooking until mixture thickens to your preferred consistency.. Stir well at regular intervals; do not allow mixture to stick to saucepan.
- 4. When you are happy with the consistency, remove from heat; add Splenda and stir until well-combined; your total yield should be at least 4-6 jars.
- 5. Pour cooked cranberry sauce into jelly jars to approx.. ½ inch from jar-lip. Clean any cranberry from jar lip. Seal with snap lids and metal rings.
- 6. Process jars in boiling bath for 15 - 20 minutes. To Process: place filled and capped jelly jars in boiling water. Ensure the jars are covered with water.
- 7. Remove from boiling bath, and set aside to cool completely. During the cooling period, lids will "POP". You will love to hear the POP sound; it is your assurance that the jars are vacuum-sealed and ready for storage in your secret place until time to serve. Cool completely on your counter-top... even overnight.
- 8. If you do not wish to use the water-bath processing and preserving method, cooked cranberry-orange sauce can be frozen in freezer-paks of your choosing. Allow to cool completely before freezing.
- 9. Jars of sealed cranberry sauce will keep for several years; but you won't have them that long. Serve with any poultry or wild meat at Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, your best friend's birthday etc. Any "ole" time is Cranberry time.
Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor and a firmer texture than frozen or canned cranberries.
- Cook the cranberries properly: Cook the cranberries over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until they have burst and softened. Do not overcook the cranberries, or they will become mushy.
- Use a combination of sweeteners: Truvia and maple syrup provide a balanced sweetness to the cranberry sauce. You can adjust the amount of each sweetener to taste.
- Add spices and flavorings: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and orange zest add a warm and festive flavor to the cranberry sauce. You can also add other spices and flavorings, such as ginger, cloves, or allspice.
- Make the cranberry sauce ahead of time: Cranberry sauce can be made up to 2 weeks ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. This makes it a great option for holiday meals.

This low-sugar Truvia whole berry cranberry sauce is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy cranberries. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are serving it at a holiday meal or enjoying it as a snack, this cranberry sauce is sure to be a hit.
