Found some fresh cranberries at the store and I figured this felt like a good time to learn how to make sme cranberry jam. Plus, I wanted to make some cranberry baked brie + cranberry coconut swirl cookies. This was my first time making homemade cranberry jam, and although I’m not typically a jam type of person – it is delicious! I traded some more natural ingredients for this recipe so it’s vegan + refined-sugar free! Still so damn good!
