This homemade cranberry sauce recipe is as simple as it gets. With only 3 ingredients it cooks up in less than 20 minutes and tastes amazing. Naturally sweetened with maple syrup, it’s also vegan and paleo.
Stir everything together then cook over medium heat for 12-14 minutes, stirring frequently. Around 8 minutes in the cranberries will start to pop - this is normal!
Remove the pan from the burner. If there are any cranberries that are still whole, use a spatula and press them against the side of the pan to pop them.
Taste the cranberry sauce & adjust for sweetness, if needed, by adding 1 tsp of maple syrup at a time. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2 to 3 days.
