Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup oats
- 1 large apple, peeled and chopped
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 tablespoons yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter or coconut oil
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 180C (350F) to ensure it is ready for baking the cake.
- Prepare Batter: Place all ingredients except 1/4 of the oats into a blender or a bowl for hand blending. Use only 3/4 of the oats at this stage. Blend or process until the mixture is smooth.
- Mix in Remaining Oats: Fold in the remaining 1/4 cup of oats to add texture to the batter.
- Prepare Baking Pan: Line a smaller-sized baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and pour the batter into the pan.
- Bake: Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Store: Let the cake cool completely after baking. Slice and place the pieces in an airtight container, refrigerate for at least an hour for best texture and flavor.
- Serve: Enjoy the oatmeal apple cake as a healthy breakfast or a delightful dessert.
Notes
- If you do not have honey or maple syrup, you can substitute with 3-4 tablespoons of dark brown sugar. Adjust sweetness by tasting the batter before baking.
- Using a smaller baking pan results in a fluffier cake texture.
- You may substitute butter with coconut oil for a dairy-free version.
- This cake improves in flavor and texture after refrigeration, so plan to chill it before serving.
