Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup oats
- 1 large apple, peeled and chopped
- 3 Tbsp honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 3 Tbsp yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 1 Tbsp butter or coconut oil
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) to prepare for baking.
- Blend Ingredients: Place all ingredients except 1/4 cup of oats into a blender or a bowl if using a hand blender. Blend or process until smooth.
- Mix Oats: Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup of oats into the blended mixture to add texture.
- Prepare Pan: Line a small baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and pour the cake batter into the pan evenly.
- Bake Cake: Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Store: Allow the cake to cool completely after baking. Slice it and store the slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for at least one hour to improve flavor and texture.
- Serve: Enjoy the oatmeal apple cake chilled for breakfast or as a healthy dessert option.
Notes
- If honey is unavailable, substitute with 3-4 tablespoons of dark brown sugar, adjusting sweetness by tasting the batter before baking.
- Using a smaller baking pan results in a fluffier texture.
- This cake improves in flavor and texture after being refrigerated for an hour or more.
- You can swap butter for coconut oil for a dairy-free alternative.
