Cranberry Blueberry Sauce Recipes

NO FUSS BLUEBERRY AND CRANBERRY SAUCE RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat the sugar and water in a 3-quart or larger Dutch oven (or other heavy-bottomed pot) over medium-high heat until boiling.
• Add the cranberries, frozen blueberries, cinnamon, and lemon peel (or zest). Allow the mixture to return to a boil, then turn the heat down to medium-low and simmer for 15-30 minutes, until cranberries are burst and softened.
• Divide into pint-sized mason jars for storage, leaving a half inch of air space in the top of each jar. Allow to cool on the counter top before refrigerating or freezing.

• Using a potato masher or the back of a large spoon slightly mash the berries just to make certain all the skins are broken.

• Turn off the heat element and mix in the blueberries.
• Using a potato masher or spoon mash only a few berries.
• Remove from heat; cool slightly.
• Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate until thickened (the sauce will thicken as it cools).
