I made this for Thanksgiving and it was wonderful! It's great as a breakfast coffee cake or a sweet dessert! Definitely one of my favorites. Ashley, Charlotte, NC	8 weeks 5 days ago
This is a recipe I'm sure I'll use again and again. A big hit. (and a scoop of low fat frozen yogurt made it a favorite dessert) David, Hartford, CT	8 weeks 5 days ago
This cake was great. It was very moist and the cranberry apple sauce added a great flavour to it. Maria, Toronto	8 weeks 5 days ago
It was absolutely SCINTILATING!!!! Even my picky 4 yr old daughter gobbled it down. I love the tartness of the cranberries with the graininess of the brown sugar sprinkled on top. Very nice play of texture on the tongue. Veron	8 weeks 5 days ago
As a whole I liked it. A little more tart than I expected, but good. However, it was a lot of work for such a tiny piece. My prep took an hour. I used my convection oven at 350 for 30 minutes. It was very moist. A spring form pan isn't a must (you could line a cake pan with partchment paper and it would pull right out). A square pan would be easier to figure out what a 1/12 of a piece is. I added wheat germ for extra nutrition, it didn't affect the taste at all. Comes out very pretty, a little under 2" thick. If I made this again it would be for an event or holiday.

I think this is a great recipe. I love the topping and also the lemon zest in the cake. Anonymous, Zionsville, IN	8 weeks 5 days ago
We had this twice during the holiday season. It is yummy, moist and lovely in appearance. I made certain I bought several bags of cranberries to store in the freezer this year. Ginny	8 weeks 5 days ago
