Delicious! Hubby even loved them and he doesn’t like cranberries.
Yes, the apples did make for a sticky dough but not really a problem.
Next time I’ll add twice the cranberries. And since I live at high altitude it took about 40 minutes to bake!!
Waiting on these to rise right now. I found that it was a very sticky dough and needed extra flour. Can’t wait to see how they turn out!!
