Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups (about 190g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (about 100g) rolled oats
- ½ cup (about 100g) brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg – optional
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup (120ml) milk of choice
- ⅓ cup (80ml) neutral oil – like vegetable or coconut
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups (about 250g) chopped apples
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir carefully so everything is evenly distributed.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs until lightly frothy.
- Add the milk, oil, and vanilla extract, and stir to combine.
- Create a well in the center of your dry mixture.
- Pour in the wet mixture all at once.
- Using a rubber spatula, fold the batter gently. If it feels overly thick, add a little extra milk (1 tablespoon at a time).
- Stir in the chopped apples. Be mindful that you don’t want to mash them.
- Lightly grease your baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
- Spread the batter evenly into the pan, smoothing the top with the spatula.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before slicing.
