This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less maple syrup.

I would have liked this recipe more if the apples had been peeled. The skins were a bit tough and chewy.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The apples were a bit too tart for my taste and the cherries were a bit too sweet.
