How to Make Oatmeal Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x12-inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup oleo (or margarine), ¾ cup packed brown sugar, ½ cup granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Add 3 cups rolled oats and 1 cup boiling water to the creamed mixture. Stir well to combine.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Beat the batter for 1 minute with an electric mixer on medium speed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- **For the topping:** In a medium bowl, combine ½ cup shredded coconut, ¼ cup brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons melted butter. Mix until well combined.
- Spread the coconut topping evenly over the warm cake.
- Return the cake to the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the coconut topping is golden brown.
