I'm not a big fan of cranberries, but I really enjoyed this coffee cake. The cranberries were not too tart and they added a nice sweetness to the cake.

This coffee cake is so moist and flavorful. I can't believe it's made with whole wheat flour. It's definitely a healthier choice that doesn't sacrifice any taste.
