Ingredients
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 the oven: Set your oven to 180°C (350°F) to prepare for baking the cake.
- Prepare the batter: Add all the ingredients except 1/4 cup of oats into a blender or bowl if using a hand blender. Use only 3/4 cup of the oats at first. Blend or process the mixture until smooth and creamy.
- Mix in the remaining oats: After achieving a smooth mix, stir in the remaining 1/4 cup of oats by hand to add texture.
- Transfer to baking pan: Line a small-sized baking pan with parchment paper and pour the cake batter evenly into it.
- Bake the cake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-30 minutes. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and store: Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing. Store the slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for at least one hour; the flavors and texture improve as it chills.
- Serve and enjoy: Serve chilled or at room temperature as a healthy breakfast treat or a wholesome dessert.
Notes
- You can substitute butter with coconut oil for a dairy-free version.
- Make sure the apple is peeled and finely chopped to blend smoothly.
- Honey adds natural sweetness; adjust the amount to your taste or substitute with maple syrup if preferred.
- Use plain yogurt for moisture and tenderness; Greek yogurt works well too.
- Store leftovers in the fridge and consume within 3-4 days for freshness.
