Introduction

I found this recipe and fell in love with it. It is great when it is served hot or cold. I like the Granny Smith Apples and 2 cups of fresh cranberries. My husband and kids add it to vanilla ice cream.

Enjoy this as a Winter Holiday side dish. I found this recipe and fell in love with it. It is great when it is served hot or cold. I like the Granny Smith Apples and 2 cups of fresh cranberries. My husband and kids add it to vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients

    3 to 4 pounds of peeled, cored, roughly chopped Granny Smith apples (or other good cooking apple such as Golden Delicious, Fuji, Jonathan, Mcintosh, or Gravenstein)
    1 1/2 cups to 2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
    2 Tbsp lemon juice
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/4 cup of brown sugar
    1/2 cup white sugar
    1 cup water
    1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

1 Place all of the ingredients in a large (5-quart) pot. Bring to a boil, lower heat to a simmer and cover. Cook 20-30 minutes, or until the apples can easily be mashed.
2 Remove from heat. Mash the apples and cranberries with a potato masher to the consistency you want.

Serve hot as a side to pork or turkey. Or serve hot or cold as a dessert with some vanilla ice cream.

Store in the refrigerator for a couple of weeks. Or freeze for up to a year.

Makes 1 1/2 to 2 quarts.
