Easiest Cranberry Compote!

1. 1

   Add all ingredients, including optional ingredients if desired, EXCEPT sugar to a medium saucepan.

2. 2

   Place over medium-high heat.

3. 3

   As cranberries begin to pop (usually around 5 mins), stir occasionally with a large spoon.

   Reduce heat if the compote is at a rolling boil!

6. 6

   Mash softened cranberries with spoon, fork, or even a mashed potato smasher. Be gentle, as to avoid any hot splattering.

   Continue to stir, and add the sugar slowly, tasting as you add.

8. 8

   When desired sweetness is reached, remove from heat and enjoy!
