I’m using fresh, whole cranberries in a thanksgiving pie recipe. The pie is an apple-cranberry pie. I made the pie last year, and the cranberries were tart and not sweet in the pie. Is there a way to make the canberries sweet so they taste delicious in the pie? (i heard soaking them in sugar water??) help me please :]
I make a cranberry apple pie, and all I do is cut the fresh cranberries in half before adding them to the other filling ingredients. They absorb the sugars from the other ingredients while cooking and come out sweet.

Simmer a bag of them w/ about 1/4 cup of water and about a cup of sugar (brown would be good, going into an apple pie) just unitl the berries pop. Let cool.
If you add a Tbsp or so of lemon juice and the zest of an orange to the above, you will have fresh, homemade cranberry sauce!
