It's best if you use fresh cranberries in this relish.

I love serving this recipe with both Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. It's also perfect on a holiday breakfast buffet.

Prep Time: 30 minutes

Cook Time: 0 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 medium oranges, washed
  • 2 pounds fresh cranberries, rinsed and drained
  • 4 cups sugar
  • 1 heaping teaspoon cinnamon*

Preparation:

Early in the day, cut unpeeled oranges into quarters. Remove seeds. Put oranges and cranberries into food processor. While processing, add sugar. Divide between 2 containers. Place one in the refrigerator and the other in the freezer.

*I think it was Needlepoint 142 that first told me about adding the cinnamon. It heightens the flavor of the cranberries and oranges.

I make my relish just before Thanksgiving. Half is eaten then and the other is frozen for Christmas.
