A healthy snack cake. Do NOT sub Splenda for the 1/3 cup sugar in the dry ingredients. The sugar helps keep cake moister. Eat plain or with a dollop of sugar-free Cool Whip. Ingredients:

1 large egg |
1/3 cup canola oil |
1/3 cup splenda granular |

1 cup all-purpose flour |
1/3 cup sugar |
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
2 tablespoons instant dry milk powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Mix lightly, in a mixer bowl, the oat bran, water, egg, oil, Splenda, extracts, and vinegar. Let stand 30 to 45 minutes. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP!
2. Preheat oven to 350°F Coat a 9-inch square cake pan with non-stick cooking spray.
3. Stir remaining dry ingredients together in a separate bowl to blend well.
