This is great. I used 1 c white & 1 c brown sugar as suggested by other reviewers. While eating it, I thought it might taste even better with pineapple. My second try I used 2 bananas & 1 cup pineapple. I also used the pineapple juice from the can instead of the water. My family usually calls me Deborah, referring to Raymond's wife who can't cook on 'Everybody Loves Raymond'. Everybody loved this. My sister-in-law asked for the recipe. When she made it she omitted the salt & 1/2 the oil & it was still very good. The best. - 05 Jan 2007 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
I made this cake for my daughter's 1st birthday, since she is a big fan of raisins. It was delicious! I did follow the other reviewer's advice and only baked it for an hour - that was sufficient. - 23 Apr 2004 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
DELISH ! As Rachel Ray would say ! NO words describe it better than this. I use vegetable oil because that's all I have in the house at the moment. I didn't have any ground cinnamom. I only have cinnamon powder so I use 1 1/2 tsps and I also had to bake for 1hr mo minutes, 40 minutes wasn't enough. But I am in a very humid climate. So Maybe that why. I would defintely make this one again. - 16 Nov 2006 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
