Ingredients
- 12 oz bag fresh cranberries
- 3 medium apples
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 1 tsp lemon juice
Directions
- Heat your oven to 350ºF. Rinse the cranberries, then tip them into a large 8x13-inch casserole dish, or a 2-3 quart dish. Peel and core the apples, then dice them into pieces about as big as the cranberries. Add the apples to the dish with the cranberries.
- Sprinkle in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and cloves, then add the lemon juice. Give everything a good toss so the fruit is evenly coated.
- Bake the fruit in the hot oven for 45-55 minutes, until it cooks down into a thick, spoonable, jammy relish. Stir once at 30 minutes, then stir again at 45 minutes and see how it looks. Taste, then add more sugar or lemon juice if it needs a little nudge. You can serve it warm, or refrigerate it for later.
