Grandma's Cranberry Sauce

Grandma’s Cranberry Sauce – Best Ever

My Grandma’s Cranberry Sauce is the only cranberry sauce that I have found that I like. This is the original recipe with the exception of the sugar amount.

Grandma used 3 cups!

With more natural pectin (it’s in the apples), this jells faster than plain jellied cranberry sauce.

The apples also add sweetness, so it takes less sugar.
