Description
It's almost Thanksgiving, which means it's time for cranberry sauce. But this isn't your aunt's typical cranberry sauce. It's sugar free, being sweetened just from fresh mandarin oranges and a little liquid monk fruit. You can adjust the sweetness to your taste preferences, or add some maple syrup if you like it super sweet. Spoon on top of your turkey, or use it for your morning oatmeal, I won't tell.

Instructions
Cook Mode Off: Prevents screen dimming
- Peel your oranges, and add to a food processor. Blend until smooth, and transfer to a medium pot
- Add your cranberries, water, and cinnamon to the pot, cover, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat
- Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 6 minutes (covered), until most of the cranberries have broken down. Stir the mixture frequently to ensure nothing burns or sticks to the pan, and to further break down the cranberries
- Remove from the heat, and use a potato masher to roughly mash the cranberries to desired consistency. Stir in the vanilla and monk fruit, sweeten to taste, and allow to cool totally before serving
