Incredibly moist cake is also great for muffins. Very light-it will disappear very quickly.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups boiling water
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup whole bran cereal
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup shortening
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 Pour boiling water over oats and bran cereal, and let stand 10 minutes.
2 Combine the remaining ingredients, and add oat mixture to them. Pour into two 8 or 9 inch pans.
3 Bake at 350 degrees F ( 175 degrees C) for 30 to 40 minutes. To make muffins bake about 15 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.
