When the cranberries do finally come in, we load up, so we have plenty of frozen cranberries to last us the year. Then we start cooking with them. Cranberry relish, cranberry sorbet, even cranberry salsa. We even have three different recipes for apple cranberry pie. One of my father’s favorite things to make is applesauce with cranberries added in for tartness, flavor, and color. We’ll eat it for breakfast, as a side for pork, or with ice cream for dessert. Also, not sure which type of apple to use? Check out our Guide to Apples for more information on apple varieties. Serve hot as a side to pork or turkey. Or serve hot or cold as a dessert with some vanilla ice cream. Store in the refrigerator for a couple of weeks. Or freeze for up to a year. Pineapple guava applesauce from Amber at Awake at the Whisk
