Ingredients
- 1 cup Fresh cranberries
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 3 tablespoons Pure maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
Rinse and sort through the cranberries to ensure they are clean and free of debris.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine the cranberries and water over medium heat. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries have burst and softened.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the cranberry mixture to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or a wooden spoon to cream the softened butter until it's smooth and fluffy.
Step 5
Add the cooked cranberries, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, and salt to the butter. Stir or beat until all the ingredients are well combined and the butter is a uniform pink color.
Step 6
Transfer the Cranberry Maple Butter to an airtight container. Allow it to chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up and meld the flavors.
Step 7
Serve chilled or at room temperature with your favorite bread, pastries, or roasted meats. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
