Slow Cooker Cranberry Sauce Extraordinaire

Ingredients


1 cup water

1 cup white sugar

1 (12 ounce) package fresh cranberries

1 orange, peeled and pureed (I used 4 'Mandarins')

1 apple - peeled, cored and diced (I used 'Honeycrisp')

1 pear - peeled, cored and diced (I used an 'Asian' Pear)

1 cup chopped dried mixed fruit

1 cup chopped pecans (I eliminated these)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions

1. Use a food processor to chop your fruits (fresh and dried) if you have one. Combine all ingredients in your slow cooker, stir well, cook on 'low' temperature at least 8 hours.
2. Refrigerate to cool, may be divided into smaller portions and frozen.
 
I made this for our Thanksgiving feast this year. It is delicious, but very sweet. A little goes a long way. Perfect with turkey!
