    I make a similar recipe, except I use Stevia instead of Splenda and I use dehydrated cranberries instead of raisins. I have a dehydrator and they reconstitute after sitting in the sauce. I do not use O.J or Marmalade. I cook the cranberries in 1 C of Cider. - 11/18/10

    Absolutely will make again at Christmas. Will add more ginger just for my taste as I like ginger (will make it regular ginger to keep the sugar down), and remember to add the raisins this time. - 12/11/07

    Very Good
    Very good. I had Smucker's Simply Fruit Apricot spread so I used that. I added 2extra tbs of Splenda (probaly because my spread was unsweetened). I like this alot, simple, healthy, and gingery! - 11/25/11

    Thought the original recipe was VERY good, and the variations by other members make me want to use this recipe again and again and again... - 11/23/11

    Very similar to my recipe, except I use a lesser amount of fresh ginger, finely minced, and chopped walnuts. Adding apricots sounds great. Also, it occured to me that adding some shredded coconut and a splash or two of raspberry vinegar might give it a more piquant taste. I love playing with this! - 12/23/10
