This time of the year, the grocery store is overflowing with
fresh bags of cranberries waiting to be part of a great recipe like this one.
I had a
big bag of cranberries in the fridge and was thinking of a treat that would fit the holiday season and go with a Paleo / gluten - free lifestyle.
So this weekend I accidentally thawed a
whole bag of cranberries (don't ask)-- and I've been experimenting with new cranberry recipes.
I bought and froze about 10
bags of cranberries at the holidays since you can't get them any other time of year.
1 12
ounce bag of cranberries, washed 1 cup of a sweeter white wine (we used a riesling) 1/2 cup pure maple syrup (some might want a little more for a sweeter taste).

I could have just frozen them, since cranberries freeze so well, but I already have 3
bags of cranberries in the freezer...
I always have a couple bottles of fresh cranberry juice in the pantry and
a bag of cranberries in the freezer (stashed away when they're plentiful in fall), making it easy for me to mix up any time I wanted a change from my evening glass of wine.

I see beautiful and fresh red cranberries these days in the store and couldn't resist picking
a bag of these cranberries along with butternut squash.
Like most people, I have made cranberry sauce from the recipe on the back of
the bags of cranberries.
She simply follows the recipe on
the bag of cranberries (one bag of rinsed and picked cranberries, 1 cup of water and 1 cup of natural sugar simmered together for 5 to 10 minutes or until cranberries pop and the mixture thickens), but she substitutes clementine juice for the water and adds a generous portion of walnut pieces.
Now you don't have to stress about those 10
bags of cranberries you've been hoarding since Thanksgiving.
You just throw in
a bag of cranberries into a small saucepan, add some liquid, a little sweetener, and cook for a few minutes until all the berries pop.
The cranberry sauce will be made with fresh cranberries (though I imagine the canned version will be on the table too) and I will probably stick with the recipe that's on
the bag of cranberries.
Try these festive two - bite desserts at home: the filling was basically homemade cranberry sauce — just use the recipe on the back of
the bag of cranberries — with orange zest and spices — use ground cinnamon, ginger, cloves or whatever you liked — spooned into purchased and baked phyllo shells (buy them frozen; most brands are vegan, but check the ingredients).
This looks great — I still have half
a bag of cranberries to use up and I'd love to make something like this.
I finished up the jar of applesauce and half of
my bag of Cranberries AND I am going to Disney!
I was looking for a bread recipe to make with
the bag of cranberries that I have had for a while now.
I don't always pay attention to recipes on the back of food packaging but I just happened to look at the recipes on one
bag of cranberries and one of them caught my attention — a recipe for Cranberry Coconut Macaroons!
