Apple-Cranberry Chutney
Ingredients
- 3 cups peeled and chopped apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the chopped apples, cranberries, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, water, grated ginger, cinnamon, ground cloves, and a pinch of salt.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes or until the fruits soften and the mixture thickens.
- As it simmers, use a spoon to occasionally mash some of the fruit against the side of the pan to achieve your desired consistency.
- Once thickened to your liking, remove the chutney from the heat and let it cool. It will continue to thicken as it cools down.
- Transfer the Apple-Cranberry Chutney to a clean jar or airtight container. Refrigerate once completely cooled.
