Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh cranberries
- 2 medium Peaches (peeled, pitted, and chopped)
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 0.25 cup Orange juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Water
Instructions
Rinse the cranberries under cold water and set aside. Peel, pit, and chop the peaches into small pieces.
In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, peaches, maple syrup, orange juice, orange zest, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, salt, and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
Once the cranberries begin to pop (about 5-7 minutes), reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly and the peaches soften.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the relish cool to room temperature.
Transfer the relish to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
