Ingredients

1 (12- ounce) bag cranberries, fresh or frozen
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch nutmeg
1/4 cup bourbon, or more

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine the cranberries, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a small baking dish and cover. Bake for about 55 minutes. Remove the cover and stir to melt any un-dissolved sugar. Return the dish to the oven and bake for about 5 to 10 more minutes, or until the cranberries are soft and surrounded by a syrupy sauce. Remove the dish from the oven and immediately stir in the bourbon, to taste. Let the dish cool to room temperature, then chill for at least hour before serving. The sauce will keep for several weeks in the refrigerator.

Simply the Best!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

No more canned sauce for me!!! I love to bake and I love cranberries so when I saw this recipe I had to try It. especially... since it was simply cranberries with a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg. I went to the liquor store and the clerk helped me find a "nip"size bottle of a true bourbon. it was just the right amount. (I am 53 years old and over the years have sampled some pretty terrible homemade sauces which made me think I would only like the can of ocean spray jellied sauce,)this is Just absolutely delicious!!!Read more

The Best!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Every year I get at least 3 phone calls asking for this recipe. I was reminded of that fact today when a parent from my... daughter's school (who I haven't heard from in a year), called me for it. I made it for a class Thanksgiving Dinner and had to print copies for the entire class due to its response. It's so easy to make and everyone loves it - even the people who swear they don't like cranberry sauce! Thanksgiving cannot be complete without this dish.Read more

One of the best!

This is delicious! I also substituted Grand Marnier for the Bourbon and added a little bit of orange juice, just to make it... more surypy. This will be my "go-to" recipe for Thanksgiving!Read more

This recipe couldn't be easier. I used Jack Daniels, and even my no-alcohol inlaws loved it and request it every holiday!

so simple but so good
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've never been a cranberry fan, but I was asked to do the cranberries for Christmas dinner. Even I loved this. I did use... alittle more sugar and a spiced run rather then bourbon. My daughters said it kinda tasted like applesauce.Read more
