A bright, cozy, sugar-free cranberry sauce made with real cranberries, lemon, and warm spices. It thickens naturally without starch and takes only 10 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cranberries
- 1/2 cup Swerve (granulated)
- 1/3 cup water
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon chilli powder
Instructions
- Add the cranberries, sweetener, water, lemon, and spices to a medium saucepan. Place the pan over medium heat, stir once, then cover with a lid so the cranberries soften evenly.1 cup cranberries, 1/2 cup Swerve (granulated), 1/3 cup water, 2 teaspoons lemon zest, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/8 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon chilli powder
- Stir occasionally and let some steam escape. Keep the heat at a gentle simmer. Within 8 to 10 minutes, the berries break down, the juices thicken, and the mixture turns glossy.
- Take the pan off the heat and let the sauce cool. It will thicken as it cools. Taste once cool and add more sweetener for less tartness or an extra splash of lemon for more brightness.
Notes
- The sauce thickens significantly as it cools, so check the final texture only once it reaches room temperature.
- Sweetness settles after chilling; adjust only after the sauce is fully cooled.
- If the sauce becomes too thick, loosen it with 1 teaspoon of water at a time.
- Frozen cranberries work the same; add 1 extra minute of simmering if they release additional liquid.
