Cranberry Sauce and Butter

By

I love this sauce, I have tried many, and I love a lot of them, but this one is my favorite. I love the hint of orange and the vanilla aftertaste, it is so good. Make sure to try the butter recipe also.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb. fresh cranberries (can use a full pound and no blueberries)
  • 1/2 lb. blueberries
  • 1 vanilla bean
  • 1 Tablespoon orange flavor
  • 1.5 cups water
  • 2 cups sugar

Preparation

Step 1

In a blender place the vanilla bean and water and blend. In a pot add the berries, vanilla water mixture, and sugar. Cook until the berries burst. Turn off heat and add orange flavor. Goes great with turkey, but not necessary.

Cranberry Butter
One cup of cranberries', chilled to one pound of butter softened. Place in mixer and whip until well blended. Chill and serve through the holiday's.
