With Thanksgiving Dinner in just a few weeks, cranberry sauce is typically on our dinner menu. I probably shouldn’t admit this but I typically serve canned cranberry sauce (Gasp!). I know, I know. Now that I have tried this slow cooker cranberry sauce recipe, I won’t be doing that anymore.

On Thanksgiving Day, I spend most of the day cooking so when trying out new recipes, tasty and easy are what I am looking for or it’s not going to happen. That is why I love that this recipe only needs 3 ingredients and that it can be made in the slow cooker, which means I just place everything in the slow cooker and it does the rest.
