I'm looking for a simple baked apple recipe without sugar and this cranberry one looks good. I can make my own cranberry juice and sauce from fresh cranberries. I'm going to actually try it in my small slowcooker, as I've baked potatoes in it with great success. I'll update my review soon, when I actually try this. Probably tomorrow cuz it'll be Sunday and I have time to experiment.

The contrast of the sweet apples & the tart cranberry was wonderful! I cooked 2 Crispin apples with some leftover Cranberry Orange Sauce (#61619) from my freezer & apple juice. Since most cans of cranberry sauce are 14 oz, I do think that the amount for 4 apples is overstated. Thanx Barb!
