Featured ~ Diana ~ Leave a comment

We are trying to substitute as much of the sugar as possible out of our diet for this upcoming Thanksgiving holiday time, and what better place to start than cranberry sauce! This makes a bit more than 2 Cups of sauce.

Ingredients:
  • 3 Cup Cranberries
  • 1-1/4 Cup Water
  • 1/3 Cup Monkfruit Sugar (I used Lankano)
Instructions:
  1. Rinse cranberries to ensure they are clean.
  2. Bring water with the sugar to a boil.
  3. Add cranberries and bring the mixture to a boil again
  4. Reduce heat to low and boil for 3 min stirring occasionally.
  5. Turn heat off.
  6. Break the cranberries as desired (I used a potato masher).
  7. Turn heat on Low and continue cooking for another 2 min.
  8. Remove from heat and transfer to a jar.
  9. Cool completely before transferring into the refrigerator.

Featured ~ Diana ~ 1 Comment

When they say monk-fruit is 200-300 times sweeter than cane sugar, they are not kidding! This recipe is very simple, with only 2 ingredients!

Ingredient List:
  • 2.9 lbs tart Empress Prune Plums (after pits are removed)
  • 3/4 Cup Lakanto Monkfruit+Erythritol sweetener
Instructions:
  1. Put all pitless prunes into container.
  2. Sprinkle the sweetener on top.
  3. Leave alone for 2-3 hours until the prunes give out their juice.
  4. Cook on medium heat until its boiling, stirring frequently.
  5. Set heat to low for 1 hour, frequently stirring so its coated in sugar and juices evenly.
  6. Turn off heat and let stand 2-3 hours so its cooled down.
  7. Repeat until consistency of preserves is mushy (should take about 2 cycles, unless more gooey is desired).
  8. Pour in container for storage.
  9. ENJOY! (on pancakes, toast, on top of yogurt, ect)
