Equipment

  • food processor

Ingredients
  

  • ⅓ Orange, Plus Peel sliced
  • 6 ounce Cranberries
  • 2 Apples unpeeled but core removed
  • ¾ Cup Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Heat your grill or a cast iron skillet over medium high heat (about 400 degrees). Grill the apple slices for about 2 minutes per side. You want the outside nicely grilled, but don't want the center of the apple to get mushy.
  • Once the apples are grilled remove from the grill and allow to cool. Once cool, halve the apple slices and add to a food processor.
  • Place the remaining fruits in a food processor or blender and chop until fine.
  • Stir in the sugar until well combined.
  • Refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
