This fresh cranberry sauce is our family favorite. Add a bit of orange zest if you wish to spice it up.

Ingredients

1cupreal maple syrup
1/2cupbrown sugar
1/2cupgranulated sugar

Instructions
Rinse and strain the cranberries.
Place all of the ingredients into a saucepan.
Turn heat to medium/high and stir and bring to a boil.
Cook uncovered and reduce heat to simmer. Stir continuously for about 6 to 10 minutes. The cranberries will begin to pop. I crush the cranberries with a spoon.
After 6-10 minutes the sauce should be thick.
Take off the stovetop and cool completely before serving.
