Introduction

I saw Aaron McCargo Jr. (Food Network) make this on the Food Network and thought this could be tranformed into a lower sugar form of cranberry sauce. It could have been almost sugar free, but I couldn't find sugar free dried cranberries.

Ingredients

2 cups diet cranberry juice

1 (6-ounce) bag sweetened dried cranberries

1 cinnamon stick (broken in half) or cinnamon

1 cup Splenda

2 Gala apples, peeled, cored, and diced

2 teaspoons corn starch

Directions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the cranberry juice, cranberries, cinnamon, and sugar. Bring to a boil and let cook for 5 minutes. Add the apples and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries have softened and apples are tender, about 5 minutes.

Remove 8 ounces of the liquid to a small bowl and whis in the cornstarch. Slowly add the cornstarch-juice mixture (slurry) to the cranberry mixture, stirring constantly. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and pour into a serving bowl. Refrigerate until thickened, about 30 minutes. Romve the cinnamon sticks and serve.
