I modified my sister's traditional Holiday Cake recipe for lower sugar carbs to fit our diet - I substituted 1 cup bran for the second cup of sugar the recipe called for. (I might try 1 cup applesauce + 1 cup bran next time instead of any sugar.)I modified my sister's traditional Holiday Cake recipe for lower sugar carbs to fit our diet - I substituted 1 cup bran for the second cup of sugar the recipe called for.
