Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries have a tart and tangy flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the apples and the warm spices in this cake. If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries that have been thawed and drained.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix the batter until just combined, then stop mixing.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will prevent the frosting from melting.
- Enjoy the cake within 3 days: The cake is best when eaten fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
This apple cranberry snack cake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is moist and flavorful, with a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness. The cream cheese frosting adds a rich and creamy touch that takes this cake to the next level. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy dessert to serve at a potluck or a special treat to enjoy with your family, this apple cranberry snack cake is sure to be a hit.
