Categories     side-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 orange, juiced and zested
1 lemon, juiced and zested
3 cups port
12 ounces fresh cranberries, washed
1/2 medium red onion, diced
1-ounce fresh ginger, peeled and cut into julienne
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons orange liqueur
4 Rome Beauty apples

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the orange and lemon juices with 1/2 cup of the port. Add the zest and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Reserve.

Place the apple cups in a small baking dish. Spoon the cranberry relish into the apples. Spoon the excess relish around the apples. Cover with foil and bake until apples are tender, about 30 to 45 minutes.

Categories     dessert

Time 4h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
1/2 cup chopped dried cranberries
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup rolled oats
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h27m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 29

2 teaspoons black peppercorns
2 teaspoons juniper berries
2 teaspoons fennel seeds
2 teaspoons dried or fresh thyme leaves
1/2 cup olive oil
1 (3-pound) boneless venison leg roast or turkey breast, trimmed and tied
1 cinnamon stick, snapped in half
4 teaspoons fennel seeds
4 teaspoons whole cloves
4 teaspoons black peppercorns
4 teaspoons juniper berries
6 cups fresh cranberries (about 12 ounces)
1 1/2 cups red wine, such as pinot noir
1 cup balsamic vinegar
2/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup undiluted orange juice concentrate
4 cups apple cider
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
6 star anise pods (optional)
2 cinnamon sticks
4 whole cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 cup unsalted butter
4 Braeburn, Jonathan, Gala, or Red Delicious apples, cored and halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 bunches firm red or white chard, stemmed
1/4 cup apple cider (or cider residue from baked apples)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • To prepare venison: In a spice grinder or food processor, grind the peppercorns, juniper berries, fennel seeds, and thyme together. Mix with 4 tablespoons of the olive oil and rub on the venison. Cover and let stand in the refrigerator for 4 to 12 hours. Remove the venison from the refrigerator 1 hour before cooking to come to room temperature.
  • To make the cranberry sauce: In a food processor or spice grinder, coarsely grind the cinnamon, fennel seeds, cloves, peppercorns, and juniper berries together. Place in a cheesecloth square and tie closed with a string.
  • In a heavy medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, wine, vinegar, sugar, and orange juice concentrate. Add the spice bundle and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cranberries are very soft. Remove the spice bundle, pour the sauce into a bowl, and let cool. Use now, or cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.
  • While the cranberry sauce cools, make the baked apples: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. In a medium saucepan, cook the cider, vinegar, star anise, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, and butter for 5 minutes. Place the apples, cut-side down, in a baking pan. Pour the cider mixture over the apples. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until semisoft; set aside and keep warm, or reheat just before serving.
  • To make the venison: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large skillet, heat the remaining 4 tablespoons oil and brown the venison on all sides. Place on a rack in a roasting pan and roast in the oven for about 50 minutes for medium-rare. For medium-done, roast 6 to 7 minutes longer. Remove the venison from the oven, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let stand for 5 minutes before slicing.
  • To make the chard: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chard and apple cider and saute for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To serve, transfer the venison to a platter and arrange the apples beside it. Divide the chard and cranberry sauce between bowls. Serve.

Pecan Cranberry Baked Apples Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by erinstargirl

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 organic, local apples
1/2 cup homemade organic pecan butter - recipe: http://www.keyingredient.com/recipes/772825036/homemade-pecan-butter/
1/2 cup organic dried cranberries
1 tsp organic cinnamon
2 TB organic extra virgin coconut oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350° F. Using a melon baller, scoop out each apple's stem and continue down past the seed cavities. Don't take away too much of the apple itself, leave enough room for 1/4 cup of filling in each apple. In a saucepan, heat the pecan butter, dried cranberries, cinnamon, and coconut oil over low heat, stirring occasionally. Once the coconut oil has melted, the mixture will come together easily. Remove from heat. Place the apples in a casserole pan. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the filling into each apple. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 35 minutes. Cool slightly before digging in.
