Ingredients

Scale

1 medium onion, diced
1 cup brown sugar (light or dark)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Prep your ingredients by washing and dicing the apples and onion.
In a large pot over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and sauté the onions until translucent (about 5 minutes).
Add the diced apples and cranberries, followed by brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
Pour in the apple cider vinegar and bring to a gentle simmer over low heat. Cook for 20-25 minutes until tender.
Check the consistency; it should be thick yet chunky. Adjust cooking time if needed.
Remove from heat and let cool completely before transferring to jars. Refrigerate for up to two weeks or process for longer storage.
