This cranberry sauce is quick and easy. It’s so much healthier than traditional Cranberry Sauce because it’s not packed with refined sugar. And, it’s versatile:
- It fits in beautifully with a traditional Thanksgiving meal.
- It’s superb served on top of my super-easy healthy squash pie
- I eat it on its own, as a treat with chopped walnuts and raw honey drizzled on top.
- It takes one minute to make.
This recipe is based on a Nomi Shannon recipe. I simplified it for ease of prep and to fit in better for my mommy lifestyle.
Raw Cranberry Sauce:
Ingredients:
- one 8 ounce package of fresh Cranberries – wash, and pick out any soft ones
- 1 Orange – remove the peel
- 4-6 Pitted Medjool Dates (depends on how sweet you like your sauce)
How to:
- Blend all ingredients in a food processor until it reaches your favorite consistency.
I enjoy a bit of crunch from the fresh cranberries. If you are looking for a more traditional cranberry sauce consistency, let it blend a bit more. Blend it a bit, taste it for texture and sweetness – add more dates if you like – and blend more if you like. Be flexible – it’s food, it’s fun!
