Making your own fresh cranberry sauce taste so good. It also saves a lot of money. In our area one small can is close to 3.00. You can make your own for much less.
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 bag cranberries (3 cups per bag)
Instructions
- Bring water and sugar to a boil.
- Add cranberries, return to a boil. Turn down and simmer for 10 minutes.
- If your using it now, cool to room temp then chill in the fridge. If you would like to can it, pour into jars.
- Remove air bubbles, wipe rims.
- Place lids on and can for 15 min in a water bath canner.

Kim – Thanks so much for this recipe ! ! ! ! I was hoping to find a good recipe for cranberries this season.
We just started learning how to can in July and have had so much fun since ! ! We now have several large canners and 3 stove top canners. Usually each week we can a couple of days. Yeah ! !
Currently we drive 3 1/2 hours each way to attend the canning group we have joined as I could not find anyone in my area (up to 2 hours each direction) to instruct me on how to can. BUT – we make a day trip out of each event and have thorougly enjoyed everytime we have gone to can ! ! ! A great group of folks we can with and the guy who is heading up the group is able to get us HUGE discounts on produce from the farmers in the area. FUN – FUN – FUN ! ! !
Again – thanks so much for this recipe – I definately will be canning these ! ! !
Oh I’m so glad it was a help Deb!! And yes canning is very addictive!
