Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh cranberries
• 1 cup dried figs
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups apple cider vinegar
• 0.5 cups orange juice
• 1 teaspoon orange zest
• 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons ground cloves
• 0.5 cups water
• 0.25 teaspoons salt

Directions

Step 1

Wash and sort the fresh cranberries, discarding any bruised or shriveled ones.

Step 2

Chop the dried figs into small pieces, removing any tough stems.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, chopped figs, sugar, apple cider vinegar, orange juice, orange zest, grated ginger, cinnamon, cloves, water, and salt.

Step 4

Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir well to combine the ingredients.

Step 5

Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 20–25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 6

As the cranberries burst, use the back of a spoon to mash them slightly, creating a thick and chunky texture.

Step 7

Once the chutney has thickened and the figs are soft, remove it from the heat and let it cool for 5–10 minutes.

Step 8

Transfer the chutney to a clean, airtight jar or container and let it cool completely before refrigerating.

Step 9

Serve chilled or at room temperature as a condiment. This chutney pairs beautifully with roasted meats, cheese boards, or holiday meals.
