Orange Sauce For Cranberry Orange Pancakes

Amber Bondar
This easy orange sauce goes perfectly overtop orange cranberry pancakes. Make your Thanksgiving or Christmas mornings special with this budget-friendly festive breakfast. Bright red tart berries are cooked right in the pancakes with tangy orange zest making a fragrant morning meal brighter. The velvety orange sauce is the icing or should I say syrup on the pancake.
