12 ounces fresh or frozen cranberries
1 cup water
1/2 cup sugar substitute (such as erythritol or monk fruit sweetener)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon orange zest (optional)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Directions
Rinse the cranberries under cold water and pick out any stems or blemished berries.
In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, water, and sugar substitute.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, orange zest, and cinnamon, if using.
Allow the sauce to cool to room temperature, then transfer it to a serving dish or airtight container.
Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
