This easy vegan cranberry sauce is made with fresh cranberries, mangoes, pineapple, ginger powder and cinnamon. Made from scratch and bursting with flavor
I love cranberry sauce, so, I wanted to make a really good vegan version of it
Adding mangoes to it was an afterthought, but, it paid off in a huge way!
Adding mangoes and pineapple added texture and sweet to it without being too sweet. The added spice to this recipe was the perfect offset to the sweet taste.
I add Mangoes and Pineapple to give the Cranberry Sauce an exotic flavor. Believe me, the mangoes are the essence of this recipe. It gives the recipe a great balance.
It takes away some of the bitterness of the cranberries and the sweetness of the sugar water.
Ginger is the perfect holiday ingredient, isn’t it? I like how it adds a nice to spice to all holiday recipes.
This is a recipe about an awesome spicy vegan mango and cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving dinner. I made this last year and the Cranberry sauce was sucked up in two minutes flat!
From then on, I always make more of it. This time, I hope it will sucked up in five minutes flat. 🙂
Adding a little ginger spice to it, makes the taste lovingly linger longggg after Black Friday.
If you have leftover cranberries, freeze them overnight and turn them into a delicious cranberry pie filling or cranberry loaf cake.
If you like vegan Thanksgiving recipes, I have a delicious vegan gravy recipe that is really good! Try my Navy beans salad recipe as a Thanksgiving side.

I can’t imagine your frustration for something that should be so clear. Vegetarian = no meat. It’s pretty clear, right? Ahh!!! Anyway….on to your recipe. LOVE the addition of mango in your cranberry sauce, it would add such a nice sweet flavor. Sounds just delish!
Thank you, Debra. It is hard for people to understand if they are not vegan or vegetarian. I completely understand that so, I try to explain as often as a I can
This cranberry sauce sounds delicious! I love the addition of mango and pineapple! I am pinning so I can try it next Thanksgiving!
