Slow Cooker Orange-Cranberry Sauce

In case you haven't noticed, I'm kind of a fan of crock pots. You can do so much with them! From squash to shredded chicken...even apple cider! This slow cooker cranberry sauce is so tangy and delicious, your family won't know it took hardly any work on your part. But that's okay, we'll keep it our secret. :)


Ingredients

12 oz. bag whole cranberries
3/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. fresh squeezed orange juice
1/4 c. water
1 Tbsp. orange peel, grated
1 cinnamon stick


Directions

Rinse and drain cranberries.
Transfer berries to the slow cooker.
Add remaining ingredients and stir.
Cover and set on low 2-3 hours or until cranberries begin to pop and soften.
Remove cinnamon stick and mash cranberries.
Keep cover off and turn it up to high.
Cook 15-20 minutes longer, uncovered, to help thicken the sauce.
Serve warm or cooled.
