Ingredients
  • 1 Thick-skinned orange
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1/2 cup Granulated sugar replacement
  • 4 cup Cranberries
  • 1 tablespoon Butter
  • 1 package Biscuit dough to make 8 bis.
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish or eight individual ramekins.
  2. 2
    Grate the zest from the orange, then juice the orange to yield approximately 1/4 to 1/3 cup of fresh juice.
  3. 3
    In a medium saucepan, combine the water, sugar replacement, orange juice, and orange zest. Stir over medium heat until the sweetener dissolves.
  4. 4
    Add the cranberries to the saucepan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the berries begin to pop and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.
  5. 5
    Pour the hot cranberry mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  6. 6
    Separate the biscuit dough rounds and arrange them on top of the cranberry filling, overlapping slightly if necessary to cover the surface.
  7. 7
    Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter.
  8. 8
    Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  9. 9
    Let cool for 5 minutes before serving warm.

Note

Storage: Cover leftovers tightly and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.

Substitutions: If you do not have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries without thawing. For the biscuit dough, you may use homemade biscuit dough or refrigerated biscuit tubes.

Variations: Add 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg to the cranberry mixture for a spiced flavor. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Tip: Ensure the cranberry mixture is hot when placing the biscuits on top to help them rise evenly.
