Recipe type: Miscellaneous
Serves: 3 cups
Ingredients
  • 1 lb cranberries
  • 2 apples (I like Granny Smith best), peeled and diced
  • ½ teaspoon orange zest
  • ½ cup orange juice
  • 1 cinnamon stick (or ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon)
  • ½ cup brown sugar (more or less to taste)
Instructions
  1. Place all the ingredients in a medium saucepan. Mix to combine.
  2. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook 8-10 minutes, covered, until the apples are softened and the cranberries are cooked through and the consistency is somewhat saucy. Most of the cranberries should have popped and the mixture will have thickened. Discard the cinnamon stick.
  3. Taste the chutney and add more sugar if you like. I like this chutney on the tart side, but you can add more sugar if you'd like.
Notes
You can also add some chopped pears, dry apricots, raisins, grated ginger, chopped walnuts. You can also spice it up differently with a splash of balsamic vinegar, grated nutmeg, allspice, cloves, vanilla, etc.
