Have you ever made cranberry sauce on the stove? It requires some babysitting and stirring and time. Time I just don’t have. This time of year is crazy for me and I’m sure it’s just as crazy for you too. So if I can find a way to save time, free up my focus and still make a delicious dish then I’m going to do it. I decided to try making Ninja Foodi Cranberry Sauce to see if it tasted just as good as when I cook it over the stove. And I am happy to report that it does! It’s super simple. Requires very little focus and tastes delicious!
To make Ninja Foodi Cranberry Sauce you will need the following –
1 bag Cranberries, 12 oz
2 1/2 tsp Orange Zest
1/4 C Orange Juice, freshly squeezed
2 tbsp Honey
1/2 C to 1 C Sugar
Pinch of Salt
This recipe moves really quickly so I suggest doing a little prep work before you start.
First, wash your cranberries and remove any stems. Set aside 2 ounces of the cranberries, about a 1/4 C
Take your orange and zest it until you have 2 1/2 tsp zest. Then take the same orange and juice it for 1/4 C juice.
Next, take your Ninja Foodi or a small bowl and combine the orange juice and honey. Stir until the honey is dissolved. If you did this in a bowl, pour in to the Ninja Foodi.
Add the orange zest and 10 oz of cranberries to the Ninja Foodi.
Place the pressure cooking lid on the Ninja Foodi and pressure cook on high for 1 minute.
Let the Ninja Foodi do a natural release for 7 minutes then flip the valve to open and release the remaining pressure.
Remove the lid and set aside.
Turn the Ninja Foodi to saute. With a wooden spoon stir the cranberries and break them down.
Add in the 2 oz of cranberries you had set aside and the 1/2 c of sugar. Stir until dissolved. Taste the sauce and if it’s not sweet enough add some more sugar until you like the flavor. You can also add a pinch of salt too.
You can serve the cranberry sauce warm or store in the fridge until you are ready to enjoy.
Quick and simple cranberry sauce in your Ninja Foodi! Perfect for the holidays.
