Equipment
6 qt Instant Pot
Ingredients
12ouncescranberries3 cups
¼cupwater+ 2 tablespoons, divided use
1cinnamon stick
2 inchorange peel optional
½cupgranulated sugar
Instructions
If using orange peel, use a vegetable peeler to cut off just the orange part of an orange (not the white pith underneath).
In a 6 quart Instant Pot, combine 2 cups of cranberries with ¼ cup water, cinnamon stick, and the orange peel.
Lock the lid and ensure the valve is 'sealed'. Turn on to high pressure for 5 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes. Turn the valve to release any remaining pressure.
Once the pressure is released, remove the lid and turn the Instant Pot to saute.
Stir in the remaining 1 cup of cranberries, an additional 2 tablespoons of water, and the sugar. Stir about for about 4-5 minutes or until the cranberries have burst.
Transfer to a bowl and cool completely in the fridge.
Notes
The sauce will thicken upon cooling.
Important: Do not open the lid until the slow cooker has naturally released for 10 minutes.
