Equipment

  • Slow Cooker - 4 quart or larger

Ingredients

  • 24 oz. fresh cranberries (two 12 oz. bags)
  • 13 oz. orange marmalade (I use Bonne Maman)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (add at the end of the cooking time)
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Add the cranberries and orange marmalade to the slow cooker, stir to combine.
  • Cover and cook on HIGH for 4 hours. After the cooking time is up, stir and pop any un-popped cranberries with the back of a spoon. Add the sugar and stir.
  • Tip: I often use the cleaned out the jam jar to store the left over cranberry sauce.
