I made half the recipe with fresh cranberries. I tried it this morning on pancakes. This is a great topping. I'm used to maple syrup but that's a great chance with maybe fewer calories. Maybe it would be great with splenda instead of sugar. Thanks Paula :) Made for the Australian Recipe Swap October 2010 -
Made this today to go on top of our breakfast pancakes. It was so simple to make and was a nice change to our usual syrup. We all found it a bit to sweet however; so the next time I make it I will reduce cut the amount of sugar in half. Thanks for posting this recipe Paula.

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
