How to Make Apple Oat Cakes

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of water, 1/4 cup melted butter, and 1 cup rolled oats. Let the mixture stand for 20 minutes to allow the oats to soften.
  2. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 2 large eggs to the oat mixture.
  3. Beat the mixture with a whisk or electric mixer until well blended and slightly frothy.
  4. Stir in 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups of shredded apples (about 2 medium apples).
  6. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each cake.
  7. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to appear on the surface.
  8. Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, vanilla yogurt, and chopped walnuts.
