  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract or 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • Coconut oil or butter

Instructions

    Put the cranberries in a small saucepan.

  3. 3

    Add the sweetener and 2 tablespoons of water.

  4. 4

    Boil until the cranberries are softened, pressing gently on them and stirring them with the back of a spoon, for 5 minutes.

    At the same time, in a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over 3 tablespoons cold water; let stand 5 minutes to soften.

  6. 6

    Bring the cream, ½ cup water, and extract to a boil on medium heat.

  7. 7

    Take the pan off the stove; add the gelatin mixture; stir until the gelatin is completely melted.

  8. 8

    Add the cranberry mixture and stir until it’s all through the cream.

  9. 9

    Pour into custard cups or a Pyrex dish.

    Chill at least 3 hours. You can make this a day ahead, but don’t freeze it or it goes all gooey or clumpy, depending on your fridge.
