How Do You Make Sugar Free Cranberry Sauce?
Homemade cranberry sauce is so easy to make, but most recipes call for a cup or more of sugar. This recipe has no added sugar. Fresh cranberries can be purchased in the produce section of most supermarkets. Wash fresh cranberries in a colander with cool water. Drain the cranberries and place in a medium sized sauce pan. Place pan over medium high heat. Add splenda and orange juice to the pan. Stir well to incorporate the splenda as it melts with the heat. Once the splenda is completely dissolved, cover the pot and let cook. Keep cover on the pot for 20 minutes. Uncover and stir. Turn heat to low for another 10 minutes. The cranberries will burst open releasing pectin. Pectin is a natural gelatin contained in the berries. This will allow the mixture to thicken. Allow to cool to room temperature before serving. Transfer into a pretty bowl to serve.
