This holiday favorite is back on our menu, but this time we are making refined sugar free! Instead of packing sneaky white sugar into this classic side dish, we decided to make ours using organic honey. We love this recipe because it only takes 15 minutes to make, and is not overly sweet like some varieties tend to be.
Tip: Using fresh cranberries over frozen makes the dish look more vibrant so you can wow your guests.
We loved whipping up a Woman of Today-approved Cranberry Sauce in our own kitchen for you to enjoy in yours.
