Feeling Saucey?!

Ka- Pow Cranberry Sauce

(This was originally made with agave, but lately I’m moving away from the agave and towards honey & maple syrup…detailed explanation to come in a future newsletter… but try what you like)

makes 2 cups

time: 25 minutes

  • o 1 bag fresh organic whole cranberries (12oz)
  • o 2/3 cup (agave) or try REAL maple syrup (less for more tart sauce)
  • o 1/3 cup orange juice
  • o 1 cinnamon stick
  • o 6 black peppercorns
  • o 4 whole cloves
  • o 3 whole allspice o spice bag or cheesecloth


Rinse Cranberries. In a medium saucepan combine: cranberries, maple syrup, o.j, & cinnamon stick. Place peppercorns, cloves and allspice in a spice bag or a small piece of cheesecloth (tied up securely). Add to cranberry mixture. Bring all to a light boil, then reduce to a low simmer. Cook 15-20 minutes, stirring often. Mixture should be a thick syrup. Take out the spice bad & cinnamon stick. Chill and serve. (Recipe inspired by Amy Andrews)
