I found this recipe in Bon Appetit years ago, but never got around to rate it. We have friends who grow cranberries, so this is a must in the fall when they are fresh! Lovely!!!

Yummy! My son loves fruit desserts so I make them often. Loved the combination of apples and cranberries, and used Grade B maple syrup. Not overly sweet or heavy, perfect served with ice cream. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Perfect. This is MY kind of dessert! I am a lazy bum & didn't peel the apples. I think I'll skip the brown sugar & add more maple syrup instead. MMMM. everybody loved this & the kids finished it for breakfast. :) Thanks, Kitzy & I hope you're doing well. xoxoxoxoxo
