There's something fundamentally wrong with this recipe. With so little liquid it's impossible to make a workable batter. I probably added about a cup of water to make it the right consistency. This recipe is in major need of correction.Reply

Delicious! Wonderful flavor. Not too sweet, goes great slathered in cream cheese! I did use craisin instead of fresh cranberries as I could not find fresh, but it was still delicious. Thanks Sharon for another great recipe.1Reply
