Cranberry Pear Chutney Recipe

  • 3 cups fresh cranberries
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 firm pears peeled and cored, cut into 1/2-inch dice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1/4 cup golden raisins
  • 1/4 cup dried pitted dates coarsely chopped
  1. Combine cranberries and sugar in saucepan; cook over medium-low heat until berries release juices, about 8 minutes.
  2. Place pears a medium bowl, and toss with lemon zest and juice.
  3. Add orange juice, raisins, and dates to cranberries. Raise heat to medium-high. Stir occasionally, adding pears when mixture begins to bubble. Cook, stirring, until mixture thickens and pears turn red and are cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Let cool; refrigerate up to 24 hours.
