Instructions

  • Prepare your cranberries. You can either use store-bought dried cranberries or make your own craisins as mentioned above.
  • Transfer your DIY craisins to the blender or food processor. You can also use a coffee grinder since it makes fine powder, but make sure your blender or grinder is completely dry so the powder won't clump. Blend on the lowest setting until you get a fine, dusty fruit powder from the cranberries.
  • Gently open the lid, and they are ready to be stored. Be careful when opening the lid because it is dusty. You can use a small spoon to transfer the powder to a container.

Notes

  • Small batches - do only small batches to ensure even grinding. Overloading the blender or grinder may result in uneven powder.
  • Sweeteners - you can experiment with adding sweeteners to the cranberry powder, the best few teaspoons of powdered sugar substitute.
  • Cookie sheet - you can spread your berry powder on a cookie sheet or parchment paper after grinding if you plan on drying it further in the sunlight.
