Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 bags fresh cranberries I started with two full bags - by the time I picked out the mushy ones I had about 1 1/2 bags left
  • 1/3 cup apricot jam
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp ground cardamom

Instructions

  • Place all ingredients (cranberries through cardamom) in a large sauce pan.
  • Heat over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a boil and cranberries start to pop.
  • Reduce heat to simmer and cook for another couple of minutes, still stirring gently.
  • Remove from heat and cool. Refrigerate until cold before serving.
