Mulled Cranberry Apple Sauce Recipes

MULLED CRANBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Wrap the cinnamon stick, peppercorns, orange zest and cloves in a small piece of cheesecloth and tie closed with kitchen twine to make a bundle.
• Combine the cranberries, sugar, 1 1/2 cups water, the wine and a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan; add the cheesecloth bundle and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the berries burst and the sauce thickens, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• Transfer the cranberry sauce to a bowl and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight; discard the cheesecloth bundle. Garnish with thin strips of orange zest.

• Strain the wine into another pan, discarding the aromatics, and add the apple, cranberries and sugar. Bring to a simmer. Bubble for 10-15 mins until the berries start to burst, and the apple is soft. The sauce will thicken as it cools - you can add a splash more orange juice or water to loosen, if you like. Make ahead and freeze, or keep in the fridge for up to four days. Bring to room temperature to serve.

APPLE-ORANGE CRANBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Slice away the bottom of the orange so it sits steady on the cutting board. Working from top to bottom, slice off the peel, leaving behind most of the white pith.

When the water comes to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, squeeze all the juice from the orange and set aside.Strain and set aside the blanched orange peel.
• In a medium saucepan, add diced apple, cranberries, orange juice, blanched orange peel, sugar, cinnamon, and cloves. Bring to a boil over high heat; then reduce the heat to low and partially cover the pan. Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens, the apple is tender, and the cranberries have burst, 10-15 minutes.
• Transfer the cranberry sauce to a heatproof bowl and let cool for 1 hour before serving.
