Photo: Baked Cranberry Sauce Recipe
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.

I've made this in the past and it is always a winner. Going to a new place for Thanksgiving dinner and of course volunteered to make this because I know it will impress. BTW - for Thanksgiving, the go-to bourbon is of course Wild Turkey.

I have made this many times.Easy and delicious. I reduce the sugar just a bit.
My husband likes the canned jelly stuff,
but thinks this is great, too. I have both on the table.

I have been using this recipe every Thanksgiving for at least four years now and every year it comes out just as delicious as the previous year. I think any brown liquor would work fine as a substitute for the bourbon, but I usually add cognac because that's what I have on hand. Delicious! The sauce keeps for a long time in the fridge too!
