Rum Raisin Cranberry Topping
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 12-ounce package Ocean Spray® Fresh or Frozen Cranberries
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (I used peanuts but use whatever you like)
- 3 tablespoons dark rum
DIRECTIONS
Combine water and sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Add cranberries; return to a boil. Gently boil cranberries for 10 minutes without stirring.
Purée the mixture until smooth and drizzle over your favorite treat.
Makes about 3 cups.
RECIPE NOTES:
- I made just half the recipe because that is all the cranberries I had.
- I thought it unusual that the raisins and nut were pureed all together with the cranberries but I guess that is what creates the final texture and taste.
- I added a little water at the end to thin a bit I think adding a little extra water when cooking the mixture would accomplish the same thing.
- I could hardly discern the taste of rum so, if it is important to you and you aren’t having for breakfast, you might want to add more.
