Very dry batter - added about 1/2 cup milk. Also, reduced apple amount to about a cup.

I agree with mamafreak, there is no reason this recipe is wrong. I cannot count how many times I have made this bread. It's a family favorite and I even give it away as gifts and I always get recipe requests. I recommend trying it again and really paying attention to the recipe. It's a no fail recipe. The dough is heavy and thick but it should never be crumby at all, I think that they might have missed an ingredient or two. I am baffled that it hasn't work for jenjen1177, quinton1 and jamieswin. Try it again!!

I pulled this from the magazine a few years ago, the only difference is are that the original recipe had 1 egg & 1/2 tsp salt. I grate my apples since it's just faster/easier for me. Really like that you can taste the apple (unlike some other recipes) & the cranberries are nice and tart. This is not an overly sweet nor doughy recipe. Very good.

This was disappointing. As other cooks said, the batter was so dry (crumbly) I had to add water. The bread has a grainy, cornbread-type appearance. The one good thing is that it turns out moist and yummy. It reminds me of cherry pie. I don't think I will make it again, though, because of the difficulty in preparing it.

I found that I needed to add some water to it in order to make it moist enough to spread into the pan.

I used extra apples than what the recipe called for and it was excellent. It is now my husbands favorite bread!

I have used this recipe several times and it always comes out great however before adding cranberries I soak them in 1/4 cup orange juice and add mixture . I always use a combo of macintosh and courtland apples. This is soooo good Nanellen

Not sure what would have gone wrong with quinton1's recipe because I have made this bread many times and it is my absolute favorite! (I can eat the whole loaf myself) I know that the batter is very, very thick and lumpy but it shouldn't be crumbly. I would suggest giving it another try because when it turns out the way it should it really is soooo delicious!
