I rely on applesauce to keep this crowd-pleasing cake tender and moist. The blend of nuts, cranberries and apples complements the subtle hint of wheat flour for terrific taste.-Martha Pollock, Oregonia, Ohio

I'm allergic to walnuts, so I substituted pecans instead. The cake turned out great! The pecans added a nice crunch and flavor to the cake.

This cake is okay. It's a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if it had more cranberries and walnuts.
