Ingredients Breakdown
Each ingredient plays an important role in this cake’s taste and texture:
Rolled Oats (2 cups / 200 g)
Blended into a coarse flour, oats replace traditional flour and provide fiber, protein, and a hearty texture
Baking Powder (1 tsp)
Gives the cake a light lift and helps it rise slightly.
Milk (1 cup / 240 ml)
Use any milk — dairy, almond, oat, soy, etc. — to moisten the mixture and bind the ingredients.
Carrot (1 medium, grated)
Adds moisture, sweetness, and nutrition. Carrots are rich in beta-carotene and fiber.
Apple (1 medium, grated)
Contributes natural sweetness and juiciness. Apples also help to soften the cake’s crumb.
Dried Apricots (9 pieces, chopped)
These add chewiness and a rich, fruity flavor. Soaking them in hot water softens their texture.
Raisins (4 tablespoons, rinsed)
Offer bursts of sweetness throughout the cake and help balance the oats’ earthiness.
