Low Cal. Plum cake

This Cake was made without any butter. I used none fat sour cream as a substitute. The plums can be replaced with any of your favorite fruits such as peaches, apples, cherries and prunes. Try this with a spoon full of none dairy whipping cream and you will be in heaven.

My husband loved this, I thought it was okay. My issue w/ recipes that use words like "one bunch" "a half head" is that it's subjective -- 1/2 lb or one lb really helps because otherwise you're left guessing if your "bunch" or "half head" is equivalent to the recipe's. - 2/22/13

Don't worry about precise measurements of ingredients. You can wing it and it will still taste great. - 2/25/13

I really really really loved this. Was a perfect Super easy flavorful side dish. I will absolutely make it again. I double the recipe & used a whole head of cabbage. I sliced thin & boiled for 5 mins to soften..then drained. Melted the butter & added the cabbage back & followed along. So GOOD! - 5/12/11

I adore cooked cabbage, too - this looks great, but I'm going to weigh everything and re-do it in grams for myself, and use the Splenda brown sugar blend for it. Thanks for the reminder about braised red cabbage! - 3/20/09

We made a whole head and 3 of us woofed it down! I don't even like cabbage so I was looking for a recipe to help me learn to like it. This was just the thing! The only thing I did differently was boil the cabbage for 2 minutes first to speed the simmer time w/ the pan ingredients. - 3/15/09

Making this as I write. Have made it before but couldn't remember the ratio of balsamic vinegar to sugar. If you've never had this, try it. Delicious! (I also use salt & pepper) - 4/1/16

I used a whole head of cabbage since ours were all ready to pick at once and we had loads. I skipped the butter and steamed in just a little water - did add a pinch of cloves and some caraway seeds with the sugar and vinegar. Delicious! - 9/15/15

I have never eaten cooked red cabbage or balsamic vinegar so this was really pushing the boat out to try this. It must be said I was so impressed. I will definitely make this again. Thank you for the recipe. - 4/11/11
