Hi! This sounds delicious! I have a question about the cranberries… Can I use frozen ones and if so, do you recommend that I thaw them first or us thawing not necessary? Thanks!
Cheers!

Hi!
Glad you like the recipe. If using frozen cranberries, add them while they’re frozen. There’s no need to thaw them.
Here’s wishing you and your family a happy, healthy new year.
Cheers!
