Cranberry Pudding Cake

"I loved this with low fat vanilla ice cream! I also think it is lower cal/fat than some other cranberry desserts -- and the cal count can probably be lowered with some minor changes. The original recipe calls for yellow cornmeal, but I used white cornmeal and vanilla - I used black walnut flavoring -- yummy! Recipe source: Bon Appetit (January 2008)"

  1. I love the slight crunch the cornmeal adds. Mine didn't really come out with a pudding part...it was more like a sweet cornbread on top of sweetened cranberries. The cream didn't seem to separate out to form a pudding layer. Nevertheless it was delicious and I'm glad I made it!
     
  2. Awesome! And easy! Was gobbled up by my boyfriend's kids, and they are the pickiest eaters! I couldn't find black walnut flavoring so I used Hazelnut...I'm assuming any nutty flavor would work. Thanks!
     
  3. This is wonderful, I use frozen cranberries as that is all I only had a small amount of maple syrup so added in pancake syrup to make 1 cup which seemed to work well, thanks for sharing hon!

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
