Could I do fresh cranberries instead? I’ve never subbed fresh for dry before.
Thanks!

fresh cranberries are very bitter but if you like bitter go for it, let me know how it comes out

These were excellent! Just the treat I need to keep me from going off the deep end and indulging in unhealthy and harmful junk:) Will definitely make these again!

Can you substitute egg beaters for the egg?
George Bryant
I have never done it Ellen but I am assuming it would work. I recommend eggs but don’t see why it wouldn’t

I agree the salt needs to be cut in 1/2 or eliminated. Great texture though.
Sarah Grace
I just made these and was pleasently surprised! will cut out the salt next time, as it was a wee bit salty.
