I tried to make it but I got to the rum before the raisins did......I'l try again next week.

i didnt have any brown sugar or nutmeg, so i just used white sugar and pumpkin spice and the cinnamon. worked great, i even used alittle sour cream to ensure moistness.

hello i just wanted you to know i made those yesterday and wow it is very yummy , i had and still having great compliments on it. thanks again.. I didnt have any nutmeg si i used pumpking spice and also the cinnamon, and great flavor. I also found it's really good chilled. Anyone that wants to mail that to someone like i am going to freeze it first .

I wonder if you could put cinnamon. brown sugar, some chopped nuts and sliced apples in the pan before the batter and bake it like a pineapple upside down cake?

[ohpineapples]

Looks wonderful ! I'm gonna make this. I was wondering tho...why is it that some people use sugar-free applesauce? Is it because it's too sweet with the regular applesauce? Or is it a texture thing? Thanks and your cake looks great !! ; )) Smiles and waves ;))))

[a1angiem]

@ohpineapples I used unsweetened b/c it is what I had...I usually only buy it b/c it's sweet enough and I don't need the extra calories! Thanks, hope you enjoy it.

[ohpineapples]

@a1angiem Thanks ; ) smiles and waves ; )))

Can I omit the raisins? I loathe raisins...

[houbttm]

Well I used your recipe and made a small change. I soaked my raisins overnight in rum, before i made it , and dusted the top with a little powdered sugar. OMG, it was fabulous !!!

[a1angiem]

Ooo, I like that idea! Think like a pirate: add rum! :0)

[nubianqueen04]

Thank you for this recipe! I've made it 6 times in two  weeks...

[truthtone58]

you mean that there is no topping for it? well do say, plain ole cake w/o a chaser on the roof will choke you to death.

[gilgamesh1962]

@truthtone58 I have noticed that some recipe sites, include a butter rum sauce you can pour over,  I like this videos recipe because it doesn't use nuts.

[richellebweber]

Hi Angie, I cannot use nutmeg in my baking, but I love the flavor, is there another spice that I can use as a sub? mace, maybe?

[a1angiem]

Well, mace comes from the nutmeg so I'm not sure if you can use that either?? I'm sure you can just leave that out...the allspice is pretty strong and the cinnamon is great too.

[shanjamorjor]
