Has Anyone Tried Craisins?
 

I don't like raisins or cranberries, but I love Craisins. Isn't that weird?

Nope! I'm the same way! I can't stand raisins, (especially cooked into foods), but I love Craisins--straight from the bag, in cookies, even in bread pudding.

I do like cranberry sauce made from fresh cranberries, though. ;)

It is possible that we're both weird, I guess...:D

I like raisins, but not cranberries by themselves. But I LOVE craisins!! I eat them in oatmeal, cereal, salads, and just all alone. They have regular ones and other flavors like cherry that are really good too.

I love them. But I also like raisins. :heart

In most recipes you can sub craisins for the raisins. You might want to change the spice or flavoring to enhance the finished product.

I've had great sucess using them to cook/bake.
Just remember they are a bit sweeter with a definite tart bite.

An interesting snack if you eat them straight!

Exactly! :)

Yes I eat them.

craisins are great to use in baking. I use them in scones.

Re: Has Anyone Tried Craisins?
 

I use them a lot in cookies- I also make a pumpkin bread with crasins and walnuts for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Re: Has Anyone Tried Craisins?
 

Yep. Love crasins. Actually we put them in salads and sometimes we will do pizza at home with chicken, spinach and crasins.


yummy

soak crasins in balsamic vinagar then make oatmeal cookies and add them to the cookie batter.


way yummy.

And gotta love those dancing claymation craisins singing "Cranberry Lake"!

I just tried the "craisenets" sp? this morning the ones that are chocolate covered.....Yummy!!! Not as sweet as the chocolate covered rasin variety and perhaps why I liked them so much!! :thumbsup

yep, I do like them... they are great, not too sweet. There is a bag in there on the table and I need to put them up cuz everytime I walk by I grab some.
