Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 large apple, peeled and chopped
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons plain yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter or coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set the oven temperature to 350°F (180°C) and allow it to fully warm to ensure even baking.
  2. Prepare the Batter: Combine all ingredients except 1/4 cup of the rolled oats in a blender or mixing bowl. Process or mix until the batter is smooth. Then fold in the reserved 1/4 cup of oats to add texture to the cake.
  3. Prepare the Baking Pan: Line a small baking pan with parchment paper, making sure the entire surface is covered to prevent the cake from sticking during baking.
  4. Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean when the cake is fully baked.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, slice the cake and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for at least one hour before serving to enhance flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute the unsalted butter with coconut oil for a dairy-free version.
  • Using natural sweeteners like honey keeps the cake healthier than using refined sugar.
  • Make sure not to overbake to keep the cake moist.
  • This cake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Feel free to add nuts or raisins for extra flavor and texture.
