Slow-Cooked Cranberry Sauce

There’s a middle ground between opening a can of red gel and toiling over a bubbling pot of molten cranberries and sugar--this year, toss your ingredients into a Dutch oven and slow cook your cranberry sauce in your June! You’d be amazed how flavorful and colorful home-cooked cranberry sauce can be, and for such a tiny amount of effort. Prefer a smoother sauce? Blend it before serving. Want a more basic sauce? Leave out the spices. The choice is yours when you make it yourself in your June.

Slow cook the cranberry sauce

Place the cranberries on the bottom shelf of the June Oven. Slow cook the cranberry sauce on High for 4 hours, until some of the cranberries have burst and created a thin sauce. June will notify you when the sauce is ready. Follow on-screen instructions to continue cooking if desired.

June Oven

Mash the cranberries

Remove the cranberry sauce from the June Oven and uncover. With the back of a fork, mash the cranberries to help them release their juices. The sauce may appear thin but it will continue to thicken as it cools. Let the cranberry sauce cool uncovered for 1 hour.

Serve

Remove the orange peel, cinnamon stick and cloves, if desired. Serve the cranberry sauce warm or cold, or store cooled sauce refrigerated in an airtight container up to 1 week, or frozen up to 3 weeks.
