Caffeine Free Vegan Cranberry Orange Relish
Bright, tangy, and just sweet enough, this cranberry orange relish is the kind of condiment that steals the show at any table. Fresh cranberries get pulsed in a food processor with orange zest, orange juice, maple syrup, a whisper of cinnamon, and a pinch of salt — no cooking required, just a few quick bursts and you're done. The result is a beautifully chunky, jewel-toned relish that tastes far more complex than its short ingredient list suggests. Maple syrup does the sweetening here, so you can dial the flavor up or down to your liking before it heads into the fridge. That chilling time is worth it — an hour of rest lets everything meld into something that tastes like it took all day. It's naturally free of anything stimulating, making it a genuinely worry-free addition to a spread where guests have varying sensitivities. Serve it alongside roasted vegetables, grain dishes, or anything that could use a pop of citrusy, tart contrast.
