There are quite a few folks in my family who just plain don’t care for cranberry sauce. The problem is, I love the stuff. So, I made these cranberry apples as a compromise 🙂 My children gobbled these amazing apples right up! Can you believe it? This recipe is actually healthy? It’s hard to believe that something so sweet and so yummy could actually be good for you!
I heard that cranberries are full of healthy antioxidants.
Ingredients
4 to 5 medium apples – different varieties give the best flavor
1/2 c water
2 Tbsp McCormick ground cinnamon (or to taste)
1 can(s) whole berry cranberry sauce
Instructions
Wash the apples, halve, and remove the cores and stems.
Chop the apples (do not remove the skin) into large chunks, approximately 1/2″ to 3/4″ in size.
Place apples, cinnamon, and water in medium size sauce pan and cook on medium-low heat for approximately 20 minutes or until fork tender. Do NOT put a lid on the pan as it will make the apples mushy.
Remove apples from heat. Gently stir in canned whole berry cranberries.
Apples can be served immediately while hot or chilled and served up to two weeks later. (The dish can be reheated as desired.) Enjoy!!
