First off, I was never an oatmeal lover. However, since I had oatmeal in abundance, I decided to try this cake. What a pleasant pleasant surprise! The cake was moist and delicious, and it was really easy! I love it! And I will definitely be using oatmeal more in my cakes. Thank you!

I didn't have a small enough pan, used a loaf pan to bake, this increased the cooking time to an hour to finish baking. I halved the recipe, used only Brown Sugar, and may have used porrage oats accidentally. So I guess I kind of screwed the recipe up with that....But it's a decent cake, have some milk with it. Despite my inability to know what kind of oats I used, I'd have to say it's worth 5 stars just because it managed to pull itself together.

I also used dried cranberries and substituted water for fresh orange juice. I added the peel from the orange and it was fresh and wonderful!

I made a few changes to see if I could make do with less sugar: instead of white sugar I used 1/3 c. honey. I increased the brown sugar to 1 and 1/3 cup, and used 2 tsp. cinnamon (not one) and instead of butter I used 3/4 c. applesauce. It was moist and good.

My husband liked it a lot. It wasn't very sweet and was very moist. I added a little more oatmeal.

My husband raved and said he could eat it every day. I thought they were just okay. They tasted a bit "wet". Like oatmeal mashed into a cake. I would prefer something closer to an oatmeal cookie or oatmeal biscuit. Good flavor though.

I rarely make a recipe "as is" - and this one was no acception. I had to add a little nutmeg, probably 1/2 teaspoon, since it reminded me of my oatmeal cookie recipe (which of course has nutmeg). I'm also a major raisin fan, so took others' advice & doubled to 1 cup - I also plumped them w/some boiling water first. opted for an 8x8 cake (for home) + 9 cupcakes for the office folks. everyone raved. thank you for a good one, I'll be making it again, but will add a little more oatmeal next time - just not enough "presense" for my taste. mmm - yummy!

Very good and easy, but half the sugar that's called for is plenty, unless you wanted something very dessert-like.

Makes a very good coffee/breakfast cake! I omitted the raisins, and only used half of the sugar (1/4 cup sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar) and it turned out great. I also added some wheat germ to the dry ingredients. I will definitely make this again for our freezer!

This was fabulous ! I used a 9x13 pan and increased the ingredients for 32 servings and it raised all the way to the top of the pan. I served it to a group of 16 and it was gone !!! No leftovers for me to bring back home. Everyone commented how moist and flavorful it was and several want the recipe. I did not add the raisins since I did not have any but I don't think it would have made that big of a difference. This cake is wonderful.

Add more raisins and some nuts. A 9 x 13 baking pan is about the right size, otherwise it's too flat.

YUM! My whole family loved this. My kids each ate two pieces for an after-school snack, and would've had more if I let them. I used instant oatmeal instead of quick oats (because I needed a way to use it up), and topped it with a streusel topping. It was so delicious!

This was pretty good. Not amazing, but good! I made the recipe into 15 muffins and put an oatmeal/brown sugar crumble on top. I baked them for 20 minutes at 350 and they were just right--moist inside, a little crunchy on top--yum! I made a few small changes, such as added 2 tsp. cinnamon, 1/2 cups of each sugar, and 1.5 teasp. of the baking soda. Thanks for a good recipe!

This cake was so good. I made the following adjustments after reading the other reviews. I cut the sugar back to 1/2 cup of each. I added some pecans on top, cuz that is what we have plenty of in South Georgia right now. I put my batter in a 28x18 cm pan. Smaller than the 9x13 and the cake came out nice and moist and thick. Will make again and again!!!!!

moist, tasty, great solid recipe. I added pecans and a crumble, too, yet would have also enjoyed it on its own.

Five year old Sam says "I think this is the goodest thing I've ever had." I also used a 9X13 pan, chopped apples instead of raisins and 1/2 wheat flour, then added a 1/2 t. baking powder, and a struessel topping.

Will definitely keep this in my arsenal - everyone liked it and was asked for recipe. I followed some advise by adding a crumb topping, substituted cranberries for raisins, and added a small granny smith apple (peeled and diced). Used 8x8 pan which made a VERY thick cake and which took about 40 minutes to cook. Still moist. Did not give it 5 stars only because this is a solid dish but not a WOW.
