Bake approximately 1hr 15min on 350. till nicely golden.
remove from oven and allow to cool down before slicing...makes 16 2x2 in servings. Good at room temp even better when cool from refrigerator.
this is my own creation based a bit on my Croatian heritage. Original recipe had more sugar and used butter about 2-3 sticks. This is a healthier version...not too sweet and uses a good fat.
if you enjoy this dish: remember to freeze cranberries at Thanksgiving since they are seasonal and hard to purchase in summer.
hope you enjoy!
