Homemade Guava Cranberry Sauce with Oranges
Skip the canned cranberry sauce this year and make it at home with a Cuban twist by adding guava marmalade and oranges! This guava orange cranberry sauce is only 5 ingredients: whole cranberries, fresh orange juice, orange zest, guava marmalade, cinnamon, vanilla, and sugar. Ready in just 20 minutes!
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar, or more to taste
- 1/3 cup fresh orange juice, (juice from 1 orange)
- 2 tablespoons orange zest
- 1 cup guava marmalade*
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 12 ounces whole cranberries
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cinnamon stick
Instructions
- In a saucepan, add sugar, orange juice, orange zest, guava marmalade, and vanilla. Stir over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Add whole cranberries, salt, and the cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low.
- Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring now and then, until the cranberries burst and the sauce becomes thick and glossy. You can also mash the cranberries until your desired consistency.
- Remove from heat and remove the cinnamon stick. Transfer the guava cranberry sauce to a bowl to cool for 20 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
*If you don't have guava marmalade, you can boil down guava paste with a bit of water until you get a liquid consistency.
You can make this 2 days in advance and keep it in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to serve.
