Preparation

Step 1

In a medium nonstick pot, combine cranberries, Splenda, sugar, and 1 3/4 cups water. Cover and bring to a boil.

Reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, occasionally uncovering to stir.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, thoroughly mix gelatin with 1/4 cup cold water.

Remove pot from heat and thoroughly mix in gelatin mixture. Stir in apple and cinnamon.

Transfer mixture to a large bowl and refrigerate until chilled and set, at least 5 hours.

Drain orange segments, roughly chop, and drain again. Stir chopped orange segments into the chilled cranberry mixture.

Stir in crushed almonds.
