Cranapple Turkey Breast (Paleo)

[Sarah Johnson]

Source: kokopaleo



Ingredients:

• One 5-6 pound bone-in, skin-on turkey breast
• 3 apples, sliced (I choose not to peel them, but you could if you wanted to)
• 4 cups raw cranberries, rinsed and “mushy ones” removed
• salt
• 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
• 1/2 cup maple syrup

Directions:

Place turkey breast in a large crockpot/slow cooker. (I had to place mine on its side to get it to fit.) Sprinkle with salt. Surround with apples and cranberries. Pour vinegar and maple syrup over the top. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until meat is cooked through and fruits are softened. (About an hour before dinner, I turned the turkey over on its other side, but I don’t think this step is essential.)

After removing the turkey breast from the crockot, “mush” the berries and apple slices a bit, and then serve them over the top of the turkey. Easy and delicious!

This is a good recipe, especially around the holiday time, (or any time). I do have one question. What grade of maple syrup do you use?

I found this online (the source is under the pic), so I haven't had the chance to make it yet.

My personal suggestion would be a medium, though.
