Ingredients
- 12 ounces fresh cranberries
- 1 large apple (peeled, cored, and diced)
- 0.5 cup golden raisins
- 0.75 cup brown sugar
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 cup orange juice
- 1 teaspoon grated orange zest
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.25 teaspoon ground allspice
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup water
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the cranberries and set them aside. Peel, core, and dice the apple into small cubes.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the apple cider vinegar, water, orange juice, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Stir until the sugars dissolve.
Step 3
Add the cranberries, diced apple, golden raisins, orange zest, and grated ginger to the saucepan. Stir to combine.
Step 4
Sprinkle in the ground cinnamon, ground cloves, ground allspice, and salt. Mix well.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low and simmer the mixture for about 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The cranberries will burst, and the mixture will thicken as it cooks.
Step 6
Once the chutney has reached a thick, jam-like consistency, remove it from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
Step 7
Serve warm or let it cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Step 8
Enjoy the chutney as a condiment for roasted meats, as a spread for sandwiches, or alongside cheese and crackers.
