Answer 2

Hi !!!
How about this one...

Quick Cranberry Nut Bread

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 (16-ounce) can Ocean Spray® Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce
1 cup chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2-inch loaf pan.
Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg in a small mixing bowl; set aside.
Using an electric mixer, beat butter or margarine with sugar in a medium mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add egg; mix well. Break up cranberry sauce with a fork and add to the butter mixture. Add nuts. Add dry ingredients to the cranberry mixture, mixing just until the dry ingredients are moist.
Spread batter evenly into prepared loaf pan. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. If bread begins to brown too quickly, loosely cover with foil and continue to bake until bread tests done.
Makes 1 loaf.

Answer 3

Cranberry Cream Cheese Pinwheels


Quick-and-easy prep makes these roll-up treats a great addition to any holiday party.
1 (8-ounce) package crescent roll dough (we used Pillsbury Crescent Rolls)
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
4 tablespoons jellied cranberry sauce


Step 1
First heat the oven to 375 degrees. Unroll the dough and divide it into 2 rectangles (most store-bought doughs are perforated down the middle). Press together any other perforations to seal them. Using a butter knife, spread the cream cheese evenly over the 2 rectangles, leaving a 1/4- to 1/2-inch border on all sides, then spread the cranberry sauce over the cream cheese. Starting at the short side, roll each piece of dough into a log, then cut each log into six 1-inch-wide slices.

Step 2
Place the slices on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Let the pinwheels sit for 5 minutes (to allow the filling to set) before removing them to wire racks. Serve warm. Makes 12 pinwheels.

Answer 5

Here's a link with several recipies. You could sub any amount of fresh/frozen cranberries for the sauce. Then cut your sugar back a pinch (1/4 cup or so). To make any recipe low fat, take your favorite recipe and substitute 1/2 to all the oil for applesauce, yogurt, or any fruity baby food. It changes the texture a pinch, but still tastes and looks great. Enjoy!!

1/4 cup cranberry applesauce
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1/4 cup white sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and lightly flour the bottom and sides of two 9 inch round cake pans.

To Make Frosting: In a medium sized bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar and 1/2 of the whipped topping until smooth. Fold in the cranberry sauce and the remaining whipped topping. Refrigerate frosting until chilled. When cakes have cooled, frost the center and top of cake only. The frosting will be very soft.
