Apple Cranberry Sauce

I figured with the holidays coming up it'd be the perfect time to share this recipe, you can add a cinnamon stick to this while it's cooking and take out before you use the immersion blender. I didn't since Kyle isn't a fan of cinnamon. This comes together pretty quick and would be a great addition to your Thanksgiving meal.

• 2 cups cranberry juice
• orange zest
• 3 apples - peeled and diced
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1 bag cranberries
• 2 tsp cornstarch
• optional cinnamon stick

1. Combine cranberry juice, cranberries, sugar and cook over medium heat until boiling. Let cook 5 minutes.
2. Add apples and orange zest, let cook about 5 minutes till apples are tender.
3. Remove 8oz liquid and combine with cornstarch. Whisk till combined. Slowly add to cranberry sauce, stirring the entire time. Cook for another 5 minutes.
4. Remove from heat, remove cinnamon stick if used and let cool slightly.
5. Use immersion blender and puree the sauce, leave a few chunks in it. Puree to your favorite consistency.
