6 tablespoons margarine, softened
2 egg whites
1 egg
3/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
2 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
2 cups cake flour
2 tablespoons poppy seeds
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions:
In large bowl, beat sugar and margarine until smooth and fluffy. Beat in egg whites, egg, sour cream, and orange juice concentrate until smooth.

Mix in combined cake flour, poppy seeds, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; beat on medium-heat speed until smooth, one to two minutes. Pour batter into greased and floured 6-cup fluted cake pan.

Bake cake at 350-degrees. 40 - 55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack 25 to 30 minutes; invert onto sire rack and cool.
