Bright, tart cranberries meet sweet citrus in this fresh relish that comes together in a food processor with just five simple ingredients. The combination of navel orange zest and juice gives it a lively, fragrant lift, while maple syrup adds natural sweetness you can adjust to your own taste. A pinch of cinnamon ties everything together with just enough warmth to make it feel festive and special. Because it's entirely plant-based, there's no need to scan labels or worry about hidden animal-derived ingredients sneaking into your spread. The food processor does the heavy lifting — a quick series of pulses keeps the texture beautifully chunky rather than turning it into a smooth sauce, which makes it far more interesting on the table. It actually gets better after an hour in the fridge, so it's a perfect make-ahead dish that frees you up for everything else going on in the kitchen.
