I followed the recipe as written, except I did cut down on the sugar substitute -- I used about 1-1/4 cups of Splenda. This was very tasty, and I will make again.

i modified recipe a bit i added 1/4 c of ground bran with physilum and 3/4 c ground flax, 1/2 c whole wheat flour in place of white flour, replaced oil with apple sauce, added 2 extra apples, and added tons of cranberries, blueberries and raspberries, plus 3 tsp of cinnamon..ps my fruit wasn't dried but ground in food processor...we loved it definately a keeper
