Method
- Combine the cranberries, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, cloves, salt, cinnamon, orange zest, orange juice, vanilla, and ⅔ cup water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer, stirring regularly, until the mixture thickens and the berries begin to break down, about 10 minutes.
- Serve warm, room temperature or chilled. Will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Notes
If you prefer a thicker cranberry sauce, simmer until it reaches your desired consistency! Keep in mind that it will continue to thicken slightly off heat.
