Zest orange before juicing. In a medium saucepan bring water and maple syrup to a simmer. Stir in cranberries, apples, pears, orange juice, orange zest, grated ginger, salt, cinnamon stick, and nutmeg. Simmer and stir occasionally until cranberries begin to burst (I love that sound!), about 5 minutes. Continue simmering, stirring occasionally, for another 30-45 minutes, until the sauce thickens to your preferred consistency. Remove from heat and cool before placing into a jar for storage. Can be stored in the fridge for 10-14 days. ⁣⁣⠀
