This healthy cranberry sauce only takes 15 minutes to make. This recipe has no prep except for measuring. So easy!

  3. Let cool. Cool completely and allow to thicken before serving.
Swerve Cranberry Sauce Recipe

Can I Make Cranberry Sauce with Powdered Swerve?

Using powdered swerve will help prevent crystallization if it is stored in the refrigerator. If you are planning to use this right away, feel free to use alternative sugar replacement. But I find that powdered options are the best for storage.

Variations

If you are looking to try a unique twist, try adding some orange zest and juice to the recipe. If using orange juice, remember to reduce the amount of water.

You can also add other berries if desired.

I have not tried it, but fresh cranberries should work fine.
