Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces fresh cranberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar, plus more for rolling
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Make the Simple Syrup: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 cup of water. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Simmer the Cranberries: Gently add the fresh cranberries to the simple syrup. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Cool the Cranberries: Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the cranberries cool completely in the syrup for about 30-45 minutes.
- Drain the Cranberries: Once the cranberries are completely cool, carefully drain them in a colander. Pat them gently with a paper towel to remove any remaining moisture.
- Sugar Coating: Pour a generous amount of granulated sugar into a shallow dish or plate. Working in batches, gently roll the drained cranberries in the sugar until they are completely coated.
- Let Them Dry: Place the sugared cranberries on a wire rack to dry for at least an hour, or until the sugar coating has hardened.
