This is an excellent recipe. I would probably reduce the sugar a little the next time I make it. I had no trouble with dryness, I suspect the others did not chop their apple finely enough. Great way to use leftover cranberries and apples.

There was not enough liquid to hold it together. I added milk the first time but I think I am going to add apple juice the next time. It tasted wonderful and everyone loved it.

This bread smells and looks wonderful. I did not have any apples because I had just made homemade chunky applesauce the other day, so instead of chopped apples, I used 2 cups of the apples sauce. It turned out wonderfully!!! The mix of the tartness from the cranberries and the sweetness of the apples are a great combination!

This was very different. The cranberries make it sour, and the apples and sugar make it sweet. It was too dry for me, it fell apart when I took it out of the pan. Won't make this again.

so good my family loved it. I doubled the recipe and included the juice from apples. I added a cup of Craisins since I didn't have fresh/frozen cranberries. It was great and so easy.

We love this recipe, both me and my husband. I cut the sugar amount and substitute with diced dates. Multiple guests have asked for this recipe as well.

I made this with cranberries I bought and froze over the holidays lasr year. It turned out very good. I love breads and this is very moist.

Great receipe. I added a few tbsp of almond milk because the batter seemed too dry to me. Also used dried cranberries because that is all I had. I used stevia instead of sugar and used half whole wheat flour to make it a bit healthier. It turned out great. Wonderful way to use up apples that are a bit too soft to eat raw!

I keep going back and forth on this one, so it's hard for me to rate. First, like other reviewers, my batter was very crumbly, but I knew that with the amount of added fruit that moisture probably was not going to be an issue - the apples would release some juice as they baked. I was right - I ended up with an extremely moist loaf of bread. It smelled wonderful while baking and when it first came out of the oven, but something about the flavor was a bit off - as much as I love cranberry breads, the tartness of the cranberries was a little too much for me. I think I would have liked more bread, and a little less fruit, so to speak. One thing I will mention is it tasted better after sitting a while, so maybe tomorrow I'll enjoy it a little bit more.
