This was a great cake. I actually made 2...1st was exactly as written and 2nd I made the following changes: used 2/3 c white sugar + 3 tbs Splenda, 1/2 c canola oil + 1/2 c unsweetened applesauce, 1 egg + 1/4 c egg substitute, 1/2 c honey, 1 1/2 c all-purpose flour + 1 c whole wheat flour, added 1/4 tsp ground cloves, I chopped instead of shred the apples and used white sugar instead of flour on the baking pan. It smelled so good coming out of the oven we dug in as soon as I flipped the cake out of the pan. I loved that the only chopping was for the apples. We only ate the doctored cake so far (the other is for my office) but it was so good with all the changes I can only imagine that the full effect one is even better. So quick and easy, my 2 1/2 yo dd helped and had a great time. I can tell I'll be making this a lot.
