I made this cake with no changes and it is wonderful! Great flavor and moist and the icing is delicious. It will make your house smell so good.We couldn't wait until it cooled all the way.

In other, no one made the cake per the instructions. Always a laugh to read "I loved this cake and we made it last night. Although we changed half of the ingredients, we really loved this recipe" Well DUH. That is so annoying when looking to reviews for information about the listed recipe. To change it before even trying as is, you make no Review contribution other than to let people know what your tastes are, which no one cares about.
At any rate, Gale's version appears to be a good one, with understanding that it a variation of the very old Quaker Oats Sunshine Cake.

I used Quaker old fashioned oats and soaked them in the boiling water until room temperature -- didn't simmer them. I also substituted wheat germ for the oat bran because that's what I had on hand. And because we love spice cakes, I a pinch each of ginger and nutmeg. Crispy on top, moist and spicy inside with a little bit of chew. Fabulous! Much better than the oatmeal cake recipe I had been using before.

I made this cake last weekend and it was delicous and filling. I used unprocessed bran and it gave the cake a nice nutty taste.Next time I will add 1 whole cup instead of 1/2 and will replace the sugar with baking splenda as another reviewer did. I also used low fat cream cheese for the frosting,next time I will use fat free to make it more healthful.Definitely a recipe I will be making again.

My husband and I just loved this cake. Not only did eating this cake help reduce our cholesterol level, but the cake was so delicious that it was hard to believe it was also good for you. I even substituted the baking splenda for sugar and couldn't even tell the difference.

This cake was delicious and very easy to make. I didn't have any oat bran so I just replaced it with flour. I also used half brown sugar and half white sugar. The key to this cake is to whip the butter, sugar, and eggs till light and airy.

Very hearty and very filling. The applesauce gives this cake just enough moisture. We loved every bit of it!
