American Thanksgiving Cranberry & Apple Shredded Turkey Breast
On a sunny Thanksgiving in Massachusetts, the Geedel Vegetable Processor creates a lighter roast turkey in 40 minutes—shredding cranberries and apples evenly, locking in freshness with the salad spinner, and whisking maple glaze. Served with roasted vegetables, it's a fresh, festive centerpiece.
Ingredients (Serves 4)
1 turkey breast (approx. 500g, skinless)
100g fresh cranberries
1 crisp-sweet apple (peeled and cored)
¼ onion
2 garlic cloves (minced)
Maple Glaze:
3 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp light soy sauce
1 tsp dried rosemary
¼ tsp salt
A pinch of black pepper
2 fresh rosemary sprigs (for garnish)
50g cranberry sauce (to serve)
Instructions
1. Shred the Apple & Onion: Even & Quick
Cut the apple and onion into 3cm chunks. Load into the Geedel Vegetable Processor and rotate four times—the apple becomes pale yellow crisp shreds, the onion soft and fine. Uniform shreds hold the glaze well and won’t brown or irritate your eyes.
2. Dry the Cranberries: Bursting with Flavor
Rinse cranberries and spin in the Geedel Salad Spinner for 10 seconds. Drying helps them stay whole when roasted, adding juicy tartness to the turkey without turning mushy.
3. Whisk the Glaze & Marinate: Smooth & Flavorful
Combine all glaze ingredients in the Geedel container. Attach the liquid whisk and blend for 20 seconds until smooth. Brush over the turkey breast, including shallow cuts, then top with apple and onion shreds and dried cranberries. Marinate for 20 minutes.
4. Roast & Serve: Juicy & Festive
Place the turkey in a parchment-lined tray, garnish with rosemary, and roast at 190°C for 30 minutes, basting twice, until the internal temperature reaches 75°C. Rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with cranberry sauce—each moist, flavorful slice balances savory turkey with sweet-tart fruit.
Conclusion
This American-inspired roast turkey breast offers a lighter festive centerpiece with fresh cranberry-apple flavor, prepared effortlessly in 40 minutes using the Geedel Vegetable Processor for a stress-free Thanksgiving celebration.
