Zesty Sugared Cranberries : Sweet, Tart & Totally Addictive


  • Author: islamerrick

  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Description

These orange-soaked sugared cranberries are bursting with flavor — crisp, juicy, and coated in a delicate snowy layer of powdered sugar. They’re the perfect snack, dessert topper, or holiday table treat. With just three ingredients and a little patience, you get a refreshing bite that’s both festive and refreshing. Warning: they’re seriously hard to stop munching on.


Ingredients

Scale

12 oz fresh cranberries

1 cup orange juice (enough to fully cover cranberries)

1 cup powdered sugar (or as needed for coating)


Instructions

In a bowl, soak cranberries in orange juice overnight (8–12 hours) in the fridge.

The next day, drain the cranberries thoroughly.

While slightly damp, roll cranberries in powdered sugar until evenly coated.

Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer.

Bake at 200°F (93°C) for 5 minutes — just enough to dry the outer layer and help the sugar stick.

Let cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
