This is a delicious sweet bun, with lots of good stuff! I couldn't find fresh cranberries, as I made these the first week of May, and there are no fresh cranberries in the markets here now. So instead I subbed dried tart cherries. I used the lemon zest option. I think I got confused with the topping/filling instructions, so I ended up just combining the nuts, dried cherries, lemon zest, cinnamon and nutmeg all together, and used it both for the topping and the filling. It came out beautifully. I will have to try this again in the fall when fresh cranberries are available, because that could only make this better. I especially love the softly spiced sweet dough! Thanks, kiwidutch!Reply

These were great. I used orange zest instead of lemon simply because I love the flavor of oranges and cranberries. I also used the cinnamon instead of the mace. To reduce the sugars, I replaced the sugar in the filling with Splenda and used Splenda brown sugar for the topping.Reply
