Homemade Cranberry Sauce Recipe Card: An Easy Thanksgiving Side You Can Print
Wondering how to make cranberry sauce from fresh cranberries? This classic Thanksgiving side comes together with just a handful of simple ingredients and turns out glossy, tangy-sweet and far better than anything from a can.
Why Homemade Cranberry Sauce Is Worth It
Cranberry sauce is the bright, tangy bite that balances a rich holiday plate of turkey, stuffing and mashed potatoes. Made from scratch, it takes about 20 minutes, serves a crowd, and can be made days ahead, which frees up the stove on the big day. A touch of orange and warm cinnamon gives it a flavor store-bought versions can't match.
A Tip for the Best Texture
The sauce thickens as it cools, so don't judge it while it is still hot. Let it settle in the serving bowl and chill it before the meal for the perfect spoonable texture. Leftovers are wonderful on turkey sandwiches the next day.
