Sorry - I took cranberries off the ingredient list because so many people can't find them unsweetened. I must have forgotten to remove it from the instructions part. It does call for dried cranberries, but for SB the only legal kind are not sweetened/no added sugar. I've had no problem finding these personally - I've gotten them at health food stores and even at my regular grocery store - I've found this brand lots of places:

If you can get them unsweetened, the recipe called for 1 cup cranberries.
