Sun-dried cranberries are a tangy and sweet dried fruit made from ripe cranberries that are dehydrated to preserve their flavor and nutrients. They are commonly used in North American cuisine, featuring prominently in salads, baked goods, trail mixes, and festive dishes. Packed with antioxidants, these tiny fruits are a good source of dietary fiber, which promotes digestion and helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels. They also contain vitamin C and other phytonutrients, which contribute to immune support and overall well-being. However, store-bought varieties often include added sugar for enhanced sweetness, which can increase calorie content and reduce their health benefits if consumed in excess. Opting for unsweetened or minimally sweetened versions can provide a healthier alternative. Sun-dried cranberries are a versatile ingredient, making them a delicious and nutrient-rich addition to both sweet and savory recipes.
