Growing up, I thought cranberry sauce came out of a can. You know the round tube of congealed cranberry sauce with the can ridges down the side?
It weirded me out. It still does, actually.
But! Last year, I saw Jamie Deen make a homemade cranberry sauce. I thought it looked really good. Cranberries, orange juice, sugar and cinnamon? I mean, how could that be bad?
So I made it. And I LOVED it. So very delicious. Very simple. But I never wrote about it...probably because I had no confidence that it would be edible.
But here we are, a year later...and I just made it. After Thanksgiving. I know. My timetable is a little skewed this year.
It's just as wonderful as I remembered! Maybe even better.
And I can't wait to share this panini recipe with you...beyond delicious. This is my lunch for the next week.
Here's the recipe. I didn't change a thing, which may be the first time in history I haven't made some change to a recipe. There's no room for improvement here.
Cranberry Sauce
From Bobby & Jamie Deen

I've been wanting a good homemade cranberry sauce recipe! I'm sick of the can too. :) Thanks for posting!
Hope y'all love it, Kelley! :)
We had this tonight alongside chicken and dumplings. Delicious! So much so that all my boys were licking their bowls clean...including Jon.
That is great. Ha! :) Great idea to serve with chicken & dumplings...I'm going to try that!
that's a great idea ... I will try at my home this process.. Visit Cranberry Sauce Recipe
I made this and it is easy and the best cranberry anyone has ever had once they taste it. I always have the recipe ready and people can't believe it's this easy either. Got it from Jamie Deen on tv many years ago.
