SUGAR FREE CRANBERRY SAUCE

I have not tried this recipe. I got this recipe from Bariatric Eating. Once you try this, you will make it to use as a dessert compote and topping for ricotta cheese or plain yogurt. It makes a beautiful crimson topping for my sugar free cheesecake, and is a gem of tart and sweet when a spoonful is placed on a slice of sugar free pumpkin pie. Each serving is 2 tablespoons.

Time 38m

Yield 2 cups, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

12 ounces smucker's sugar-free preserves, any flavor (1 jar, my favorite flavors to use are Orange Marmelade, Blackberry, Raspberry, or Cherry)
12 ounces whole fresh cranberries
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup Splenda granular

Steps:

  • Empty the preserves into a heavy saucepan and cook over medium low heat for 3 to 4 minutes until the preserves soften and melt. Add the cranberries and cinnamon; stirring constantly while mixture comes to a boil over medium high heat, cooking until berries begin to pop. Reduce temperature to low and simmer 15 to 20 minutes until sauce is glossy and thick - crushing the berries against the side of the pot with your wooden spoon. Stir in the Splenda and cook 5 more minutes before removing from heat to cool.
  • Transfer cooled mixture to a covered bowl and chill until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor and hold their shape better than frozen cranberries.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: Overcooked cranberry sauce will be mushy and lose its tart flavor.
  • Add sweetness to taste: The amount of sweetener you add to the sauce will depend on your personal preference. You can use sugar, honey, maple syrup, or another sweetener of your choice.
  • Add spices for flavor: Spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves can add a warm and festive flavor to the sauce.
  • Serve warm or cold: Cranberry sauce can be served warm or cold. Warm sauce is a great addition to roasted turkey or chicken, while cold sauce can be used as a topping for yogurt or oatmeal.

Conclusion:

Sugar-free cranberry sauce is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this holiday staple. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it tart, sweet, or spicy, there's a sugar-free cranberry sauce recipe out there for you.
