oranges and cranberries

First step is drying the oranges and cranberries in the oven. I sliced two oranges and laid them on a parchment covered baking sheet and did the same with the bag of cranberries. Bake at 200 degrees for about 4 hours, turning them every hour.

Once the oranges and cranberries are dried, we’re ready to put everything together.

Rosemary, cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, and Star Anise pieces,
  • 1 tsp. Nutmeg
  • 2 tsp. Whole Cloves
