Steps:
- Combine the walnuts, cranberries, brown sugar, oats, butter, lemon juice, cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl and squeeze together until a wet and sandy mixture is formed.
- Scoop the core out of each apple with a melon baller, taking care not to scoop completely through to the bottom or the sides. Stuff each apple with some of the cranberry-walnut mixture. Place the apples in the slow cooker insert and pour in the apple cider. Cover and cook on low until the apples are tender but still slightly firm, 3 to 4 hours depending on the size and type of apple. (If your apples are on the smaller size, check after 2 hours; they may cook faster.)
- Serve each apple whole or cut in half in a bowl with a scoop of ice cream and a drizzle of maple syrup.
EASY CRANBERRY AND APPLE CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Combine the cranberries, apple, brown sugar, orange zest, orange juice, and 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs on medium-high speed for 2 minutes. With the mixer on medium, add 1 cup of the granulated sugar, the butter, vanilla, and sour cream and beat just until combined. On low speed, slowly add the flour and salt.
- Pour the fruit mixture evenly into a 10-inch glass pie plate. Pour the batter over the fruit, covering it completely. Combine the remaining 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar and 1/8 teaspoon of cinnamon and sprinkle it over the batter. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean and the fruit is bubbling around the edges. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
- Properly measure your ingredients: Use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients for the most accurate results. This is especially important for baking, where precise measurements are essential.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the flavor of your cake roll. Use fresh, ripe apples and cranberries, and make sure your walnuts are fresh and not rancid.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense cake roll. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake roll at the correct temperature: The cake roll should be baked at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Don't overfill the cake roll: When filling the cake roll, don't overfill it, or it will be difficult to roll up without cracking. Leave a 1-inch (2.5 cm) border around the edges of the cake.
- Roll the cake roll up tightly: Once the cake roll is filled, roll it up tightly starting from one of the long sides. Use a piece of parchment paper to help you roll the cake roll up evenly.
- Chill the cake roll before slicing: Before slicing the cake roll, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will help the cake roll set and make it easier to slice.
