Recipe for Low-Sugar Whole Wheat and Oatmeal Spice Cake with Fuyu Persimmons

Low-Sugar Whole Wheat and Oatmeal Spice Cake with Fuyu Persimmons.

(Kalyn's Kitchen is part of Holiday 2009 at Oprah.com, and this is one of the recipes being featured there. Welcome to anyone visiting from Oprah.com!)

(And after this I still have one more recipe to share that I made with the persimmons that came in the mail; thanks again to Andrea from Rookie Cookery for helping me have fun experimenting with persimmons!)
