Slow cook the cranberry sauce
Place the cranberries on the bottom shelf of the June Oven. Slow cook the cranberry sauce on High for 4 hours or Low for 10 hours, until some of the cranberries have burst and created a thin sauce. June will notify you when the sauce is ready. Follow on-screen instructions to continue cooking if desired.

Mash the cranberries
Remove the cranberry sauce from the June Oven and uncover. With the back of a fork, mash the cranberries to help them release their juices. The sauce may appear thin but it will continue to thicken as it cools. Let the cranberry sauce cool uncovered for 1 hour.

Serve
Remove the orange peel, cinnamon stick and cloves, if desired. Serve the cranberry sauce warm or cold, or store cooled sauce refrigerated in an airtight container up to 1 week, or frozen up to 3 weeks.
