Cinnamon Apple Cranberry Compote
  1. 1

    Place the cranberries and 1/3 cup water in a saucepan over medium-low heat; cook for a few minutes. Stir in the apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Raise the heat and bring the mixture to a boil.

  2. 2

    Cover, lower the heat, and simmer until the apples are soft, about 10 minutes. Mash with a potato masher (or blend with an immersion blender) to your preferred smoothness.
