This cranberry sauce has been made by my grandmother, my mom, and now me. It’s simple but delicious. If there were one thing I could eat at Thanksgiving, it would be this cranberry sauce.
Ingredients
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon ginger
Two peeled and chopped pears
12-ounce bag of fresh cranberries
Directions
Dissolve the sugar, water, cinnamon, allspice, and ginger items over low heat—about 5 minutes, depending on the heat. Then add the two peeled and chopped pears. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add fresh cranberries and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat when the cranberries begin to pop.
Enjoy! I tend to eat all of it before we even sit down for Thanksgiving dinner.
