How to Make Healthy Oatmeal Apple Cake
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
Line a baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a blender or a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, chopped apples, honey, cinnamon, eggs (or flax eggs), and butter (or coconut oil). Blend or mix until smooth and well combined.
Gently fold in the reserved ¼ cup of oats to add texture.
Pour the mixture into your prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake for 20-30 minutes, checking for doneness at the 20-minute mark.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
Serve warm with a scoop of yogurt or ice cream for added indulgence. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
